Will your appeal be overturned if your appeal was dismissed for being late?

Try appealing, Nunc Pro Tunc. That means, "I should have filed within this time, I did not and here is the reason why". Basically, if you file an appeal with 30 days, Nunc Pro Tunc, with a good reason WHY you were late, they will allow this appeal. So, if you are within this time period, try appealing through this method.


Washington state divorce law what is pro tonk?

I believe that you mean "Nunc Pro tunc" which pertains to divorce papers that were improperly (or never) filed by either the court or a party of the divorce. (after the interlocutory judgment has been granted), the result being that the parties to the divorce were never actually divorced or rather that the divorce never became final. In a case such as this, if one of the parties actually got married after they percieved that they were divorced, later finding out that they were never divorced, then they would petition the court originaly hearing the case to issue a "nunc pro tunc" order to grant the divorce retroactive to the earlier date. The literal meaning of Nunc Pro Tunc is "now for later" (latin)


How do you request a nunc pro tunc?

It's important to follow the specific procedural rules of the court in your jurisdiction, as requirements may vary. Consulting with an attorney can help ensure your motion is properly drafted and submitted.


Is your divorce still legal if your lawyer put Jr instead of Sr on your divorce papers?

Yes, a simple mistake in wording does not change the validity of the legal document. You and your husband will be divorced, but 3d parties such as social security, insurance beneficiary contracts, retirement, and the like will not recognize Sr's authorization on legal documents stating Jr's name. A motion nunc pro tunc ("now for then") is to be filed by Sr to correct the decree. It opens up no legal issues, and it is merely ministerial and used for mistakes such as this one.
