2. Appeals.
If either party believes the court made a mistake about the law or made a
decision that was not supported by the evidence presented, that party may
appeal the judgment. Appeals are complicated, and you should consider
talking to a lawyer if you want to appeal.
An appeal does not automatically give you a new trial. The court that
hears your appeal will not accept any new evidence. The only information the
court will consider on appeal is (1) the tape recording of the trial, (2) any
items presented as evidence at the trial, (3) the documents in the court file, and
(4) legal memoranda.
If your case was heard in the district court, you appeal to the superior court. If
your case was heard in the superior court, you appeal to the supreme court.
You must file a notice of appeal within 30 days from the date the judgment is
distributed.
