How much time do I have to file an appeal in a small claims court case?

In Idaho, if you lost your case in small claims court, you have 20 days from the date on the court’s judgment to file an appeal. When you file an appeal, you are asking the court to review the case again. You must file a notice of appeal with the small claims court and pay the fee required to file the appeal. You must also provide a copy of the notice to the other party involved in the original hearing. The party appealing the case must provide the court with a copy of the record of the hearing. The party appealing the case must also provide the court with a written statement outlining the reasons for the appeal. The party appealing the case must also provide the court with transcripts from the original hearing if they are available. The court will review the case and may consider the legal issues at hand, the evidence provided by both sides, and any written documents submitted by either party. If the court agrees with the appeal, they may reverse the original decision. If the court does not agree with the appeal, the court may uphold the original decision.
