My question involves court procedures for the state of: California
Does anyone know, or have a guess about, what percentage of court decisions are successfully appealed? By successful, I mean having the judgment reduced or totally thrown out.
A group of non-lawyers (including me) are discussing whether Half Moon Bay, California should have filed an appeal in a court ruling that went against it in a land-use case. People who are unhappy with the decision act like they're pretty sure the ruling would be overturned on appeal, but I'm not so sure.
Thanks.
