Johnson Teah vs Philip Orega Awacotata and Sylvester (11/28/2023)

Our procedural code provides that the announcement of the taking of an appeal, filling of the bill of exceptions, the filling of an appeal bond, and the service and filing of a notice of completion of appeal are the necessary requirements for the completion of an appeal; and that the failure to comply with any of these requirements within the time allowed by statue shall be ground for the dismissal of the appeal. Civil procedure law rev. code CPLR 1:51.4. It is a settled principle in this jurisdiction that only strict compliance with the appeal statute confers jurisdiction on the Supreme Court of Liberia to entertain and delve into the merits of a matter certified for an appellate review.
