§ 1111 Appeals to appellate division

If you want to appeal a decision made by a Family Court, you take that appeal to the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court. Specifically, you go to the Appellate Division that covers the same judicial department where the Family Court is located.

In simple terms, this means you cannot pick just any appeals court. The location of the Family Court that made the original decision determines which Appellate Division will hear your case. This keeps appeals organized by region, so the right court handles the case based on where it started.
