Civil Appeal Fees & Fee Waivers
The civil filing fees for the Notice of Appeal can be found on the court's fee schedule. Checks or money orders should be payable to Nevada County Superior Court, with the exception of the filing fee for the Court of Appeal.
If you cannot afford to pay the filing fees and other court costs, you may qualify for a waiver of those costs. You can learn more by clicking here. There is no charge to file the fee waiver application. Failure to pay the filing fee or obtain a waiver may result in dismissal of your civil appeal.
