Terms Used In Tennessee Code 69-5-406

  • 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.
  • Appellate: About appeals; an appellate court has the power to review the judgement of another lower court or tribunal.

From a decree of the county court correcting a mistake in the owner’s identity, any aggrieved party may appeal to the circuit court of the county, upon giving bonds for costs within ten (10) days after the decree in such amount as the county court may fix, and the cause shall be heard de novo in the circuit court, and from the judgment of such circuit court, appeals shall lie as provided by the Tennessee Rules of Appellate Procedure.
