Appeals - When a landlord gets a “bad” decision:

• Special Detainer actions (residential rental eviction actions)

• Forcible Detainer actions (residential properties after foreclosure)

• Forcible Detainer actions (commercial and industrial rental eviction actions)

VERY IMPORTANT !!

The time to appeal is short (i.e., 5 calendar days in a justice court eviction action). You must act quickly or your appeal will be dismissed because the Notice of Appeal was not filed within the required time.  One day late is too late!  

Example: Today is January 1.  You have an eviction action in justice court.  The justice court judge signs a “judgment” in the tenant’s favor or signs an “order” dismissing the eviction action.  You have 5 days to file a “Notice of Appeal.”  You don’t count today (January 1); you start counting on January 2. 5 calendar days (not business days) later is January 6.  If you have not filed your Notice of Appeal by January 6, then your appeal will be dismissed.

If you cannot reach me (or someone else) in time, then at least file the Notice of Appeal on time.  Go HERE to download the Notice of Appeal form and instructions. You must also pay the appeal filing fee and a “cost bond.”  Call the court that issued the Judgment or Order to find out the correct amounts.

If you still have at least two calendar days left (or you have already filed a Notice of Appeal on your own), the contact our office to handle your appeal.

All legal work will be handled by Carlton C. Casler, the managing member of the Casler Law Office, PLLC, including: drafting of the Notice of Appeal, the Appellant’s Memorandum (the appeal brief), and all other related appeal documents.

Specifically, Mr. Casler will:

• Review facts with you, to determine:

(1) Your chances of success in the appeal, and

(2) The best way to proceed and arguments to make in the appeal

• Appear personally for any/all court proceedings

• Counseling regarding various post-judgment requirements and procedures

• Counseling regarding your practices and procedures, to help avoid future problems

• Evaluate whether your rental agreement needs to be revised or replaced
