Terms Used In Michigan Laws 774.42
- 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.
- Defendant: In a civil suit, the person complained against; in a criminal case, the person accused of the crime.
The circuit court for the county in which the defendant filed an appeal from a municipal court judgment pursuant to section 34 of this chapter, may continue the recognizance entered under section 34 of this chapter or require a new recognizance with further or other security until a decision is rendered in the case. If a defendant defaults on the recognizance, the court may commit the defendant to jail.
