Can a decision in Small Claims Court be appealed?
Yes, you (or the defendant) can appeal a decision. The
appeal will then be heard in a formal civil court. Both
parties have 10 days after a decision to file an appeal.
Civil court rules are more complex and an attorney will be
needed. Court expenses are also greater.
