(a) Generally. The Supreme Court will not affirm or reverse a judgment or dismiss a petition for review if:
-
(1) the trial court's or court of appeals' erroneous action or failure or refusal to act prevents the proper presentation of a case to the Supreme Court; and
-
(2) the trial court or court of appeals can correct its action or failure to act.
(b) Supreme Court Direction if Error Remediable. If the circumstances described in (a) exist, the Supreme Court will direct the trial court or court of appeals to correct the error. The Supreme Court will then proceed as if the error had not occurred.
