Massachusetts Miscellaneous
"Bad Acts" Appeals
Civil litigation often involves a number of different but connected claims. Some of the claims are considered "miscellaneous bad acts."
Now that the Trial Court has decided your case, you must decide whether to challenge that decision by appeal. If you won a judgment then your opponent may be appealing, in which case you will be defending the decision of the Trial Court.
Your appeal is very different from trial
A consultation with an appellate lawyer is advisable whether you seek to protect or challenge a trial court judgment. Yes, sometimes both parties feel wronged about parts or the entire decision.
The standards for appellate practice and procedure are substantially different from that of the trial court. Many trial lawyers do not handle appeals. Appellate actions to remedy a judgment can be complex, and there is only limited time to challenge a court's decision.
