Propose a change

Title 5 Courts

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

What to do with it
As published

5-9-143. Security on appeal.

The district court to which an appeal is taken from a circuit court in a civil case may on motion for good cause shown, after five (5) days notice to the appellant, require the appellant to give new or additional security. If the security is not given within the time prescribed by the district court, the appeal shall be dismissed with costs, and the judgment of the circuit court shall remain in effect, and the district court shall enter judgment and award execution thereon, with costs, against the appellant and his surety.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
