What is Appeal Bond – Jefferson Parish, LA?
The Appeal Bond is a form published by the Jefferson Parish Clerk of Court on its website, offered as a sample for use by qualified notaries or attorneys rather than as advice for the general public.
The Clerk's forms page explains the terms under which its forms are provided. They are a convenience, they are samples, and Clerk of Court employees are prohibited from providing legal advice or assistance with completing any form. Every document must be submitted with the appropriate fees, and the amounts are listed on the Fees page of the Clerk's website.
The Clerk's forms page is organized by court and function. It has a section for the 24th Judicial District Court, a section for marriage licenses and passports, and a section for mortgage and conveyance and UCC records. Juvenile Court forms are kept by that court itself.
Do not confuse this form with the bond-related release forms in the Mortgage & Conveyance / UCC section, such as the Release by Motion and Order to Cancel Notice of Property Bond and the Release by Motion & Order to Cancel Judgment of Bond Forfeiture. Those are separate documents with their own requirements. The Appeal Bond PDF is hosted by the Clerk at the address given as its official source.
Who needs to file Appeal Bond – Jefferson Parish, LA?
The Jefferson Parish Clerk of Court states that its forms are intended as samples for use by qualified notaries or attorneys only. If you are a notary or an attorney preparing an appeal bond for filing with the Clerk, you are the group the Clerk's page addresses.
If you are not a notary or an attorney, note that Clerk of Court employees are prohibited from providing legal advice or assistance with the completion of any form. The Clerk's office will not help you decide whether you need this document or how to complete it.
The Appeal Bond is not a Juvenile Court form. The Clerk's page says Juvenile Court forms are maintained directly by that court and refers readers to the Jefferson Parish Juvenile Court website. It is also separate from the mortgage release and cancellation forms, which the Clerk lists in its own section and which carry their own filing requirements.
