Appeal

If a noise abatement order is made and you think the magistrate has made a mistake, you can appeal the order to the NSW Land and Environment Court.

You must file an appeal within 21 days of the order being served or the order being made.

If it has been more than 21 days since the order was made, you should get urgent legal advice.

Filing an appeal will not stop a noise abatement order unless the NSW Land and Environment Court makes an order staying the order. Staying the order means that it is put on hold until the appeal is heard at the Court,

A noise abatement order may be revoked (stopped) or varied (changed) by the Local Court. There is no time limit for making this application.  If you think that an order should be stopped or varied, you should get legal advice.

Appealing a decision can be complicated. Before you file an appeal, you should get legal advice
