If you go to circuit court, and you are not satisfied with the court's judgment or order, you are entitled to appeal that judgment or order to the Court of Appeals. The order appealed from must be a final judgment or order from the circuit court. An appeal asks the Court of Appeals to look at what the circuit court did to determine if the circuit court made the right decision or followed the correct procedure.
