A: You would have to go to the court where the appeal was filed. Be prepared to pay about fifty cents a page to have documents copied. I'm not sure what you mean by "L&L," but generally appeals in misdemeanors are filed at the county courthouse where the conviction occurred, and felony appeals are filed in the California Court of Appeal for the district where the conviction occurred. You can find a list of the California Courts of Appeal, by county, at http://www.courts.ca.gov/find-my-court.htm.
A:
Your appeal attorney may still have your file at his/her office. Consider contacting the attorney for it. Depending on the nature of the case, they may still have it.
If not, contact the court where your appeal was heard.
