After an appeal is granted, most often the appellate court will remand the case back to the trial court with instructions on how to fix the errors that the lower court made. If the errors tainted the verdict, the appellate court can order a new trial.

An appellate court may issue its opinion, or decision, in as little as a month or as long as a year or more. The average time period is 6 months, but there is no time limit. Length of time does not indicate what kind of decision the court will reach.

Step 1: File the Notice of Appeal. Step 2: Pay the filing fee. Step 3: Determine if/when additional information must be provided to the appeals court as part of opening your case. Step 4: Order the trial transcripts.

The short answer? It can take years – but the length of the appeal is largely determined by the resources of the courts. Once a notice of appeal is filed, the court clerk has 60 days to prepare the records. Then, each side has 30 days to present their briefs.

There are several factors, not the least of which is the sheer volume of court cases to be processed, and the paperwork involved. Additionally, if the circumstances of your case are particularly complex, it can take longer to prepare effective briefs, and longer for the appellate judges to consider your appeal.

- The appeal to the Court of Appeals in cases decided by the Regional Trial Court in the exercise of its original jurisdiction shall be taken by filing a notice of appeal with the court which rendered the judgment or final order appealed from and serving a copy thereof upon the adverse party.

There are four stages to the appeal process — reconsideration, hearing, council, and court.

What are the possible outcomes of an appeal? Affirm the decision of the trial court, in which case the verdict at trial stands. Reverse the decision to the trial court, in which case a new trial may be ordered. Remand the case to the trial court.

Winning an appeal is very hard. You must prove that the trial court made a legal mistake that caused you harm. The trial court does not have to prove it was right, but you have to prove there was a mistake. So it is very hard to win an appeal.
