What is the specified time to appeal a decision?
Full Question:
Answer:
We cannot give legal advice, and are not forming an attorney-client relationship with you. The following is not a substitute for the advice of a local attorney. But we hope the information will be useful.
If there has been a verdict in the case, the time to appeal is typically quite brief: a matter of days. If you are not a lawyer, and/or do not have a lawyer representing you, you need to obtain one immediately for the purpose of filing an appeal, but you should file a Motion Requesting Extension of Time to Appeal (asking for 30 additional days) this afternoon if possible, or tomorrow. You should also contact the court administrator (or the judge him/her self if there is no administrator) in order to ask the judge what the time limit is - the time limits vary.
This is an ongoing legal matter and we will not be able to give any additional information to you. Good luck.
