Hello guys,

it is nice to participate in your wonderful forum.

What is the legal term of the memo provided by a lawyer to express his/her rejection of the judgement?

I am not a lawyer [too honest] but if I wanted to object, [I don't believe you can 'reject' a judgement?'] then I would 'appeal' the decision.

EG:I would appeal to the court for a retrial.
You would need to have 'grounds for an appeal'
The retrial, if granted, would give you the means to get a decision changed.Think

It may be Notice of Appeal or Notice of Intent to Appeal.

In fact Ray, it is appealing against the judgement (rejecting or challenging the authority or legitimacy of the (decision)...and the grounds have to be against the legality of that decision i.e. the judge erred in law or the evidence was tainted etc etc...

Hi Alias,I can see your point, but, to me, rejection gives the impression you have a choice, then and there, to change the given judgement.
I would go with challenge the judgement, authority, legitimacy of the [decision], but I cannot see how you can reject it 'then and there'.
That decision can only be made after further deliberation by a higher court,or authority, which has the power to over turn [or reject] the previous judgement.

reject
vb [rɪˈdʒɛkt] (tr)
1. to refuse to accept, acknowledge, use, believe, etc.
2. to throw out as useless or worthless; discard
3. to rebuff (a person

I also think that "rejection" here should be understood to mean any challenge to a decision rendered by court. And, as already explained, such challenge could come in the form of an appeal. In some jurisdiction, a Motion for Reconsideration is also permitted before the decision is elevated to a higher court. The purpose of an MR is to give opportunity to the court to correct its mistakes or errors in the decision.
