Guam § 50559 - Appeal to Supreme Court.

§ 50559. Appeal to Supreme Court.

An appeal may be taken to the Supreme Court in the following cases:

1. From an order granting or refusing an adjudication of

insolvency and, in the latter case, from the order fixing the amount of

costs, expenses, damages, and attorney's fees allowed the debtor;

2. From an order made at the hearing of any account of an

assignee, allowing or rejecting a creditor's claim, in whole or in part,

when the amount in dispute exceeds three hundred dollars ($300.00);

3. From an order allowing or denying a claim for property not

belonging to the insolvent presented under § 50250 of this Chapter;

4. From an order settling an account of an assignee;

5. From an order against or in favor of setting apart homestead or

other property claimed as exempt from execution; [or]

6. From an order granting or refusing a discharge to the debtor.

The provisions of this Title shall govern appeals under this Chapter,

except that when an assignee has given an official undertaking and appeals

from a judgment or order in insolvency, his official undertaking stands in

the place of an undertaking on appeal, and the sureties thereon are liable on

such undertaking; provided however, that an interlocutory appeal shall not

stay proceedings unless a written undertaking be entered into on the part of

the appellant, with at least two sureties, in such an amount as the court may

direct, but not less than double the value of the property involved, to the

effect that if the order appealed from be affirmed, or the appeal dismissed,

appellant will pay all costs and damages which the adverse party may sus-

tain by reason of the appeal and the stay of proceedings.
