What is an appeal?
Legal process used to ask a higher court to review a decision of a lower court.
The Court of Appeals Division One reviews the evidence and arguments presented to the Superior Court, Tax Court, Industrial Commission, and certain Department of Economic Security cases. The judgment of the Superior Court will only be reversed if they find an error of law that was so important that it likely affected at least part (or all) of the outcome of the case.
