Terms Used In Michigan Laws 570.439
- Appeal: A request made after a trial, asking another court (usually the court of appeals) to decide whether the trial was conducted properly. To make such a request is "to appeal" or "to take an appeal." One who appeals is called the appellant.
- Deposition: An oral statement made before an officer authorized by law to administer oaths. Such statements are often taken to examine potential witnesses, to obtain discovery, or to be used later in trial.
- Testimony: Evidence presented orally by witnesses during trials or before grand juries.
The causes shall be considered as in the supreme court, from the perfecting of the appeal; and at any time within 60 days thereafter, unless the time shall be extended by order of any justice of the court, either party may take testimony by deposition or commission, in the mode now provided by law in any case, without regard to the place of residence of the witness.
