Terms Used In Indiana Code 34-56-2-3

  • 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.
   Sec. 3. In all appealed cases described in section 1 of this chapter, when costs have accrued so as to render the sum named in the appeal bond insufficient to secure the costs, the court in which the appeal is pending shall require the appellant to give an additional bond in such sum as the court considers sufficient, with surety to the acceptance of the court. If the appellant fails or refuses to comply with this section, the court shall dismiss the appeal.
