As of July 1, 2009 civil case appeals will cost almost 400% more in Georgia. This includes all personal injury and accident appeals and will make access to the civil justice system more difficult for Georgia citizens.
The cost of a civil appeal will rise from $80 to $300. Increased costs and new rules for online filing through captive internet providers all mean the average citizen will pay more and face greater difficulties getting through the peoples court system. Our Atlanta Injury Law Firm believes that reasonable access to the courts are as important for civil justice as criminal justice. Ask anyone who has suffered a life altering injury. Remember that "the power to tax is the power to destroy."
