The timetable for a federal appeal begins when the initial judgement is entered by the trial court. From that date, the losing (or aggrieved) party has 30 days to file their appeal.
During the time the appeal is being reviewed by the clerk, the opposing party must file a response to the appeal. This response is limited to 35 pages and must be filed within 30 days of being served the appeal.
After the clerk approves the appeal, a hearing is placed on the court’s calendar.
