Appeal

An appeal from a judgment of a Hill County Justice Court is heard by a Hill County court. 

Should you wish to appeal the decision in your case, you must file an Appeal Bond in the amount of two (2) times the amount of the fine and costs. The bond is filed with the Justice Court in which your case was filed, and must be filed not later than the tenth (10th) day after the date the judgment was entered. Tex. Code Crim. Proc. art. 45.0425

When the appeal bond has been timely filed, all proceedings in the Justice Court will cease
