Quote Quoting Virginia Small Claims Court Appeals
So long as the amount in controversy exceeds $50, either the plaintiff or the defendant has a right to appeal any decision of the general district court to the circuit court, the next level of court in the Virginia system. After a party notes an appeal, which is usually done at the end of the trial but must be done within ten days after the entry of judgment, the judge will set an appeal bond of a certain amount of money. Within 30 days after judgment is entered, an appealing party must perfect the appeal by posting the required bond with the clerk of the court. In circuit court, a jury may be requested if the claim exceeds $100.
If you didn't do anything which would give the Virginia court jurisdiction over you, and obviously I have no way of knowing what you did or did not do, you may be able to challenge the verdict on the basis that the court did not have personal jurisdiction over you due to your lack of contact with the state.
