This process focuses on identifying legal errors rather than re-examining factual evidence. It ensures fairness and proper application of the law.
The length of appeal varies depending on the complexity of the case and the appellate court’s schedule.
Typically, it can take several months to over a year to reach a final decision. Prompt action throughout the process is essential.
No, appellate courts do not conduct new trials or hear new evidence. They review the trial court record for legal errors.
The focus is on whether the law was applied correctly and whether the trial procedures were fair.
Success depends on the strength of the legal arguments and whether significant errors occurred during the trial.
While appeals can be challenging, effective briefs and advocacy significantly improve the likelihood of a favorable outcome.
