They don't "reject" a lower court verdict per se, they can reverse a verdict and remand the case back to the lower court for corrective action based on points of law and rules of legal procedure.

When an Appellate court Rejects verdict?

Here is one example to answer this question. A New York State appellate court can chose to review a case from a lower court or it let the verdict of the lower court stand. If it does agree to review a case where the defendant was found guilty in a lower court, then the case is returned to the lower court. The prosecutor can chose to re-try the case or decide not to. Allot of that decision depends on the reason the appellate has sent the case back to the lower court. If as example, the appellate has ruled that the defendent was not properly read his/her Miranda rights upon arrest, this cannot be corrected so the case most likely will be dropped.


What happens to a case that is appealed but never heard by a judge?

Not all cases appealed to an appellate court are heard by the appellate court. In such cases the verdict delivered by the lower court of original jurisdiction will stand.
