Q: What courthouse in LA County is a criminal appeal bond filed?
I'm being told Civil at Stanley Mosk but this doesn't seem correct as this is criminal but I asked both the CCB and the 2nd district and they are saying it is Stanley Mosk - yet they won't take the filing!

A:
In Los Angeles County, criminal appeal bonds are typically filed at the courthouse that handles the criminal case in question. In this case, since it is a criminal matter, it is likely that the appropriate courthouse for filing a criminal appeal bond would be the Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center, also known as the Criminal Courts Building. This courthouse is located in downtown Los Angeles and is responsible for handling criminal cases, including appeals, in the county.
It's important to double-check with the court clerks or officials to ensure that you have accurate information about where to file the appeal bond, as processes and locations can vary.

A: In Los Angeles County, the Stanley Mosk Courthouse primarily handles civil cases. For criminal appeals, filings are typically directed to the California Court of Appeal, Second District, which is located in Los Angeles. However, if there is confusion or refusal regarding your filing, I'd recommend contacting a court clerk or utilizing the online resources provided by the Los Angeles Superior Court and the California Courts of Appeal for more precise direction.
