T/F Tuesday Answer! No, just because you don’t like the decision a judge has made on an issue in your case does not mean you can just get another hearing on the same issue. Typically, there are specific requirements for requesting a rehearing on an issue, such as those found in FL Rule 9.330.

SCOTUS Has Final Say? T/F Tuesday Answer: Art III of the Constitution vests judicial power in the SCOTUS for all cases arising under the constitution. So, what is “judicial power?” It is the “authority vested in courts to hear and decide cases and to make binding judgments on them; the power to construe and apply the law when controversies arise over what has been de or not done under it.” Black’s Law Dictionary. So, does SCOTUS have power to declare acts constitutional or unconstitutional? Or only within the contexts of the specific disputes before them? #ConstitutionMatters

True or False Answer! Although court rules and common procedures make it an uphill battle to have an appeal actually considered, We The People have a RIGHT to adequate access to the courts.

Updated Laws for Your Case- True or False Answer! FALSE! Once you have submitted your main documents (brief, petition, complaint, etc) to the court, there IS a way to update the court if you find new statutes or cases relevant to your lawsuit.

T/F Tuesday Answer: True! As unfortunate and unconstitutional as it is, Court clerks across the country are being allowed to deny your ability to file legal documents, even documents you’re legally required to file. Your best course of action if this happens to you is to document every time you try to file your documents or otherwise comply with the rule or law in question. And do what you can to get your request heard by someone else in that court, even the judge, if possible.

T/F Tuesday Answer: TRUE! In many jurisdictions, like in Florida, a lower tribunal’s final decision generally must be appealed within 30 days, or the right to appeal is forever lost. While it makes sense to have finality when there are two private parties involved, this strict time limit is NOT appropriate in cases between the government and a private party. But they still apply it nonetheless. See FL Rules of Appellate Procedure 9.110(b)&(d) [civil cases], 9.140(b)(3) [criminal cases], 9.900 [format], and 9.100 [appeals by writ, such as secondary level appeals, etc.].

T/F Tuesday Answer: TRUE! Where there is no RIGHT to appeal (see last week’s T/F post), you must ask the appeals court to take your case through an Application for Leave to Appeal or a Petition for Writ of Certiorari, depending on your jurisdiction.

T/F Tuesday Answer: FALSE! In the US, if a judge doesn’t follow the law, that does not guarantee you the right to appeal to the next highest court. In fact, in most jurisdictions, you are only guaranteed one appeal (from District Court to Circuit Court, or Circuit Court to the Court of Appeals, etc.). If you want to appeal further, you generally have to ask the next highest court’s permission to even consider your case.
