Terms Used In Florida Statutes 215.03

  • 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.
  • Evidence: Information presented in testimony or in documents that is used to persuade the fact finder (judge or jury) to decide the case for one side or the other.
Whenever upon appeal in civil cases, any judgment in favor of the state has been or shall be reversed and set aside, which may have been paid in part by the appellant, the Chief Financial Officer shall issue his or her warrant to reimburse the appellant for all sums paid in discharge of such judgment and cost, provided the appellant shall adduce satisfactory evidence to the Chief Financial Officer of the sums paid as aforesaid.
