Terms Used In 43 CFR 2.61
- 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.
- Lawsuit: A legal action started by a plaintiff against a defendant based on a complaint that the defendant failed to perform a legal duty, resulting in harm to the plaintiff.
(b) A decision that upholds the bureau’s determination will notify you of the decision and your statutory right to file a lawsuit.
(c) A decision that overturns, remands, or modifies the bureau’s determination will notify you of the decision. The bureau then must further process the request in accordance with the appeal determination.
