How do I appeal a court decision in a collection defense case?

If you want to appeal a court decision in a collection defense case in Maryland, you will need to begin the appeal process promptly. In Maryland, you must file a notice of appeal within 30 days of the court’s decision. Before filing the appeal, you should talk to a lawyer to review your case and make sure the appeal has a chance of succeeding. Once you decide to file an appeal, you will need to complete an Appeal Record form. This document will record the reasons why you are appealing the court’s decision and should include any errors or misinterpretations of law that the court may have made. You will also need to provide copies of the court’s decision, as well as a copy of the Appeal Record form. You will then need to submit your Appeal Record to the appellate court. You will also need to submit a bond or an assurance that you will pay any costs that may arise if you lose the appeal. After you have submitted your Appeal Record to the appellate court, it will review your case to determine whether the court made an error in its decision. If the appellate court agrees that the original court made a mistake, it may reverse the decision. However, if the appellate court decides that the court did not make an error, the decision of the lower court will stand.
