notice to appear and judgment shall be entered against the person in an amount up to the

magistrate for certain violations of this ordinance resulting in the unprovoked biting,
attacking, or wounding of a domestic animal; violations resulting in the destruction or loss
of personal property; second or subsequent violations of local animal cruelty laws; or
violations resulting in the issuance of a third or subsequent citation to a person. The citation
must clearly inform the person of the mandatory Special Magistrate appearance. A person

before the Special Magistrate.
* * * * * * *
K. The named violator or the county may seek to overturn a final order of the
Special Magistrate by making application to the county court for a trial de novo on the
merits. Such application must be filed within 30 calendar days from the rendition of the
order sought to be overturned. A violator will have the right to a de novo proceeding
provided that all administrative remedies have been exhausted. Failure to make such
application within the required time period will render the findings and order of the Special
Magistrate conclusive, binding, and final. All findings of the Special Magistrate will be
evidence at any de novo proceeding held pursuant to this subsection. All dangerous dog
hearings and appeals shall follow the procedures set forth in Section 14-38 of this Code.
