Appealing Biased Court Decisions

Summary

If you believe a judges decision was biased, you may have the right to appeal. In Arizona, this typically involves filing a Notice of Appeal, preparing the Record on Appeal, and filing an Opening Brief. Consulting with a local attorney or contacting the local legal aid society for free or low-cost consultations is advisable. Additionally, consider reporting judicial misconduct if you firmly believe the judge was biased. Remember, appeals usually have specific time limits, so act promptly.
