previous page next page

A party appealing a small claims judgment must file a notice of appeal with the clerk of the small claims court. [CCP §116.750(a); see CRC 8.904(a)–(b); form SC-140.] The notice must be filed not later than 30 days after the clerk delivers or mails notice of entry of the judgment. [CCP §116.750(b).] Statutory provisions for extending time when notice is given by mail do not apply. [CCP §116.140(a).]

Caution Click

The time for filing a notice of appeal is not extended by the filing of a request to correct a mistake or by virtue of any subsequent proceedings on that request. A new period for filing a notice of appeal begins, however, when a notice of entry of any modified judgment is delivered or mailed. [CCP §116.750(c).]
