How to Appeal in Mississippi
File your appeal with your county's Board of Supervisors by the deadline above. Contact your local county assessor's office for the specific portal or form required in your county.
If your appeal is denied, escalation options include: Informal review with the county tax assessor's office (review of the appraised true value before the equalization meeting) → Objection before the county Board of Supervisors, sitting as the board of equalization, at its first-Monday-of-August meeting (Miss. Code Ann. §27-35-89) → Appeal to the circuit court of the county within 10 days after adjournment of the meeting, on bond (Miss. Code Ann. §11-51-77); tried anew as a preference case → Appeal to the Mississippi Supreme Court from the circuit court judgment (Miss. Code Ann. §11-51-79).
