(a) If an appellant desires the matter to be decided by a 3-judge panel, the appellant shall file a motion for a 3-judge panel with the notice of appeal required by s. 809.10 (1) (a) . Service of the appellant’s motion shall be as provided by s. 809.10 (1) (h). (b) If a petitioner requesting the court of appeals to exercise its supervisory jurisdiction or its original jurisdiction to issue prerogative writs desires the matter to be decided by a 3-judge panel, the petitioner shall file a motion for a 3-judge panel in the court of appeals with the petition requesting the court to exercise its supervisory or original jurisdiction. Service of the petitioner’s motion shall be provided by traditional methods. (c) If a petitioner requesting the court of appeals to exercise its appellate jurisdiction to grant petitions for leave to appeal desires the matter to be decided by a 3-judge panel, the petitioner shall file a motion for a 3-judge panel in the court of appeals with the petition for leave to appeal. Service of the petitioner’s motion shall be as provided in s. 809.50 (1).

(e) The failure to file a motion under this section waives the right to request the matter to be decided by a 3-judge panel.
