Appeal


In law, an application for a rehearing of all or part of an issue that has already been dealt with by a lower court or tribunal.

The outcome can be a new decision on all or part of the points raised, or the previous decision may be upheld. In criminal cases, an appeal may be against conviction and either the prosecution or the defence may appeal against sentence.
