Look to your states laws, court precedents, and rules. Most post motions such as, "a motion for new trial", will preserve your right to appeal. Any appeals based on a De Novo review from a small claim court will allow you to appeal, regardless.

Generally, no. There would need to be some truly extraordinary circumstances for the court to consider an appeal.

What is the difference between a small claims lawsuit and a civil lawsuit?

A small claims lawsuit is a simplified court process for resolving disputes involving smaller amounts of money, typically up to a certain limit set by law. In contrast, a civil lawsuit involves larger claims and follows formal court procedures, often requiring legal representation. Small claims courts are designed to be accessible and efficient for individuals representing themselves, while civil lawsuits may be more complex and involve more legal processes.


Does the cosigner have legal recourse to recover monetary damages when the primary borrower defaults on a vehicle loan?

Maybe small claims court. Check with a local attorney. the best protection is DONT CO SIGN. Generally anyone who causes financial damages, which non payment of the debt as promised would seem to be, can be sued to have those damages recovered from. If one can pursue it in small claims court or needs a different one is really only dependent on the size of the claim, not the cause of action. In most areas the limit on awards in small claims is low, something like $1500 (varies). Anything more would require the higher, more procedurally formal court actions.

Can decisions reached on a question of law by a state supreme court may be appealed to the US Supreme Court?

Yes, sometimes. Certain US District Court decisions can be appealed to the US Supreme Court on direct or expedited appeal, if the case involves a statute in which Congress specified initial appeals go directly to the Supreme Court, or if the nature of the case is such that it is important and will undoubtedly be appealed all the way to the Supreme Court, anyway.The normal route for US District Court cases is an appeal to the US Court of Appeals Circuit Court over the District Court's Circuit, then petitioned to the US Supreme Court if a party is dissatisfied with the Circuit Court's decision.


When some builds a fence on your land and refuses to remove it even through they know it is over the property line what can we do?

Talk to your lawyer. and have it surveyed. take it to small claims court and if ( they will ) they have to pay court costs, legal fees, and the survey fees. You should already have had it surveyed. Also, check records to see if they are accurate at the courthouse or land surveyers office. Piece of cake. most important, you have to prove it. dont go to court empty handed. make sure you have proof fence is on your land.

Can anyone appeal a bench trial decision?

REMEMBER - YOU CHOSE to be tried by the judge alone (bench trial). Just because he didn't render a decision that you liked is not grounds to appeal the verdict. However, If you can cite something improper in the way the prosec;ution was handled, or mis-conduct on the part of the judge, you can file an appeal of the way the trial was conducted with the Appeals Court. (re-read the first sentence!)


What is the nature of jurisdiction when a court first entertains a case before the Bench?

The first time a case goes before the Bench, in Anglo-American law, that is, when the case goes before the court for consideration, as a general rule, the court takes jurisdiction to decide if it has jurisdiction. Jurisdiction, the power of the court to act concerning the matters before it is the more or less basis for any court's power to act in Anglo-American law.* Basically, there are two major types of jurisdiction: AT THE TRIAL LEVEL subject matter jurisdiction and personal jurisdiction. As a general rule, a person can submit to the authority of the court and effectively agree that the court's decision binds the person; however, the subject matter jurisdiction of the court is established by statutes that is laws made by legislaturs or constitutions. Subject matter jurisdiction is not something which parties can agree to for a court to act on. Courts have limitations on what they can decide about. Another way to say it is that if a court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the parties cant agree for the court to make decisions in that area. Example, a probate court, or a small claims court cant grant a divorce no matter how much the parties involved want the probate or small claims court to grant the divorce or how much the parties agree for the probate court or small claims court to grant a divorce or how willing the parties are for the court's ruling to be binding on them personally with the court's decision about the divorce. Courts cant take subject matter jurisdiction where they dont have it in the first place;they can always take jurisdiction of the case to decide if they have subject matter jurisdiction to act. They are taking jurisdiction to decide if they have jurisdiction. *Anglo-American law is the results of legal systems and ways of jurisprudential thinking which has developed as a results of an long cultural and legal association between the United Kingdom and the United States of America.
