Appeals differ from trials in a number of ways. In a trial, you will present witnesses to support your case. Frequently, a jury will be present to provide a verdict. During the trial, the judge will make decisions about what the jury can and cannot hear. Frequently, it is the judge’s decisions that form the basis of the appeal.
Sometimes there are other issues that can give rise to the right for an appeal as well. In the appellate level courts, there will be more than one judge. Those judges will often hear oral arguments from the lawyers and read briefs prepared by the lawyers. However, there will be no trial, there will be no jury and there are no witnesses. Sometimes the judges will make the decision based only on the written briefs.
Choosing The Right Appellate Lawyer
Given the fact that the success or failure of your appeal relies on your lawyer’s ability to persuade the court both verbally and in writing, the abilities of your appellate lawyer are extremely important.
除了, before your lawyer ever gets a chance to put your appeal before the judges, he must gather the information to either support the appeal or convince the judges that an appeal should not be allowed.
This means the lawyer must be capable of performing high-level legal research and working with the record of your case as it was presented during the trial. Only highly skilled attorneys can be successful as appellate attorneys.
