Prepare
If available: the complete decision with reasons, the date received, the issuing court or authority, and papers from any earlier challenge in the same matter.
Step 1
Write the order's date, the date you received it, the issuing court, and the result in one short paragraph.
Step 2
List questions: Does this order call for appeal, review, or something else? Where would it be filed? From which date is any limit counted, and has it passed?
Step 3
Ask your own advocate, or read the NALSA legal-aid page, which states aid can be requested at the appeal stage; eligibility is decided there.
What to check
A dated brief so the lawyer, not you, works out the route and timing.
If you need help
If you are unsure which date counts as receipt, record all possible dates and let the lawyer decide; do not calculate deadlines yourself.
