For LA it's about right, I am currently appealing a traffic ticket for CVC 22350 excessive speed here in Fresno Ca that I got back in Feb 09, and my brief is due on the 27th of Aug. Just google help i got a ticket and they have good appeals cases to research from. The appeals court should have sent you a form but you will most likely have to go to the appeals department and research your specific case to get a brief and see how they wrote it. i am having a hard time finding them online. good luck
In brief, yes a court decision can be appealed. In some cases appeals have reached the Supreme Court level.
One of the parties appeals and files an appellate brief.
a. a. request for a deposition. b. a responding motion for judgment on the brief. c. an answering brief. d. an advisory interrogatory.
The Court of Appeals hears appeals from the trial courts. Have you ever seen a court room drama on TV? The lawyers cross examine the witnesses. The other side objects to a line of questioning. The lawyers appeal to the Judge. The judge makes his decision. The judge runs the courtroom. He supervises the lawyers. Down in front a court reporter is recording the trial. She takes down everything that is being said. At the end of the trial, the Judge reads the law and instructs the jury. The Jury deliberates and reaches a verdict. It may be a civil case. It may be a criminal case. What happened if the Judge made a mistake? What happened if the evidence did not fit the case? If the Judge supervises the Lawyers, who supervises the Judge? The court of Appeals. A lawyer can have the Court of Appeals review the case. A lawyer writes up the reasons why the Court of Appeals should review the case. His reasons are called a brief. He submits them to the court.
