19Step-by-Step Instructions
for Filing an Unemployment Appeal
Step 1: Calculate Your Appeal Deadline
If you received your ruling on the request for reconsideration by email from the Department of
Employment and Economic Development (DEED), you have 30 days to file your appeal, from
the date the email was sent.
If you received your ruling on the request for reconsideration in the mail from DEED, you
have 33 days to file from the date it was mailed to you.
General Instructions for Calculating Court of Appeals Deadlines
• Do not count the day of the event that starts the time period (for example, the date
the ULJ’s decision was mailed to you). Instead, start counting the next day.
• Continue counting calendar days. Do not skip weekends or legal holidays.
• If the last day of the period falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, then the
deadline is the next business day. For the purpose of calculating deadlines, legal
holidays for the appellate courts are:
o New Year’s Day (January 1);
o Martin Luther King, Jr.’s birthday (the third Monday in January);
o Presidents’ Day (the third Monday in February);
o Memorial Day (the last Monday in May);
o Independence Day (July 4);
o Labor Day (the first Monday in September);
o Columbus Day (the second Monday in October), even though the appellate
courts are open on Columbus Day;
o Veterans’ Day (November 11);
o Thanksgiving Day (the fourth Thursday in November);
o The Friday after Thanksgiving; and
o Christmas Day (December 25).
☐
The deadline for starting my appeal is ______________________________.
Note: The Court of Appeals cannot extend the deadline for appeal. Before the deadline you
calculate in this step, the Petition for Writ of Certiorari must be filed with the Clerk of the
Appellate Courts and served on all respondents (steps 2-5 provide instructions for filing and
serving documents). If you do not file and serve the Petition for Writ of Certiorari by the
deadline, your appeal will be dismissed.
