Appeals

What happens if the case has been decided and you believe that the judge may have made an error? The courts work on a hierarchy system, meaning that you can appeal, or submit a request, to have a higher court review a lower court’s decision. The higher court has the ability to either uphold (agree with) or overturn (disagree with) the lower court’s decision.
