∙ 10y agoIf you have been found guilty of a crime or offence in law then you have been "convicted" and almost certainly fined or sentenced to go to prison/jail. But you have a right to "appeal" that decision, which means you can go to a higher level in the justice system to argue that you are not guilty. If you are then found "not guilty" the original decision will be over-turned and you will not have to pay the fine/go to jail.

∙ 14y agoIt means that you don't agree with, the findings of your first case and wish it to be reviewed by a higher court. Just the fact that you don't like the verdict, is not sufficient. If you appeal your case you must have sound legal reasoning for the appeal.
