Rule 5. Appeal by Permission. (a) Petition for Permission to Appeal. (1) To request permission to appeal when an appeal is within the court of appeals discretion, a party must file a petition with the circuit clerk and serve it on all other parties to the district-court action.
Every appeal shall be made in the form of a petition in writing presented by the appellant of his pleader, and every such petition shall (unless the Court to which it is presented otherwise directs) be accompanied by a copy of the judgment or order appealed against.
An appeal is the legal process to ask a higher court to review a decision by a judge in a lower court (trial court) because you believe the judge made a mistake. A litigant who files an appeal is called an appellant. A litigant against whom the appeal is filed is called an appellee.

What are my chances of winning on appeal? Most appeals are not successful. For example, the California courts of appeal will reverse the judgment in civil appeals only about 20 percent of the time. An appellant in a civil case therefore has a one-in-five chance of winning, in general.
