If you have an issue with what you should do then you must return to court to ask for clarification. If you have concerns about the children missing school when... View More

A victim wouldn't have standing to appeal the results of a criminal case. Also, the time to appeal has no doubt passed. Finally, you should have asked this in the Virginia sub-forum.

Are they still entitled to 7500 or 25 percent? I'm looking at getting $22,000 and it doesn't seem right that they only spent maybe 19 hours total on the case and I did all of the work for them to get that much.
