Parties in civil proceedings may appeal a judgement if they believe an error was made.
When to appeal
Appeals must normally be filed within one month of the judgement.
Appeal process
The appeal should explain:
- The original decision being challenged
- Why you believe the decision was incorrect
- What outcome you are asking the Court to consider
The appeal will normally be heard by the Chief Judge unless they presided over the original case.
Possible outcomes
The Court may uphold, overturn or modify the judgement, or order a new hearing.
