- If you do not agree with the final orders then you may be able to appeal the decision of the magistrate.
- Each state and territory has a process for making an appeal to a higher court and will provide information about the process involved.
- The most important thing to do is to find out the deadline for filing an appeal and which documents need to be filed with the court registry.
