- Q. I am the appellee, pro se, in a Maryland district court Peace Order Case Appeal. The appeallant, is opposing lawyer in
- A: Thank you for your appellate law question. Appeals from a peace order compromise a unique form of appellate review. Based on the information provided, you may have several options. If you act quickly within applicable deadlines, there may be grounds to move to dismiss the appeal for improper service. Alternatively, since the appeal appears to be de novo, you may be able to strengthen your case by providing additional evidence. As with any appeal, you should promptly contact an experienced appellate attorney.
- Q. what is the purpose of an appellee dispositive motion
- A: A dispositive motion may be filed in a Maryland appeal by the appellee if the appellant missed the appellate filing deadline, or if the case has been rendered moot. The former is the most common basis for a dispositive motion on appeal. Since you are the appellant, you should not attempt to file a dispositive motion, as you would essentially be dismissing your own appeal. Appeals are highly complex. While they may seem simple to non-lawyers, your chances of prevailing without an attorney at the appellate level are probably slim. This is especially so if you represented yourself in the lower court. After all, you admit that your case was thrown out prior to discovery, which means your initial pleading probably suffered from a technical legal defect. If you are serious about your case, you should consult with a Maryland appellate lawyer.
- Q. Do I file the Notice of Filing of Case in Bankruptcy Court myself once my petition and schedules are filed.
- A: Bankruptcy laws are very complex, and so are the filing procedures. In order to make sure everything is handled properly, you should consult with a bankruptcy lawyer. http://www.legal-news-network.com/bankruptcy-lawyers/
