Re: appeal to dangerous dog complaint

I am assuming that you received the notice from a government agency (as opposed to a housing development or condo).

The normal steps are:

1. Complaint is filed.

2. Respondent (you) are notified of the complaint.

3. You are given the right to respond as part of an investigation or hearing.

4. A decision-maker makes a decision.

5. THEN you have the right to appeal.
