WHY CAN you appeal?

You can appeal a decision to seek a review or reconsideration of a judgment or ruling, typically because you believe there was an error in the application of the law, procedural issues, or findings of fact that warrant correction. Appeals serve as a mechanism to ensure fairness and justice within the legal system, allowing higher courts to evaluate lower court decisions. Additionally, the appeals process can help clarify legal standards and promote consistency in judicial rulings.
