just a heads up for this, yes of course especially when the convicted didn't really commit the crime they can appeal and some convicted want to abuse the law and wants to lighten up their sentence so they will hire a criminal appeal <a href="http://www.criminalappeallawyers.co.uk/lawyers.html">lawyers</a>.

In the ordinary case, an appeal must be based on a claim that the court made a legal error. Appellate courts have jurisdiction to decide that kind of question. Appeals generallly cannot be made based on new facts that were not presented at trial. So a lawyer will usually appeal when he finds that the trial judge made an error in a legal ruling and that the error is serious enough that the appeals court may grant a new trial or reverse the lower court's decision.
