The Regional Trial Court in the Philippines is primarily responsible for hearing civil and criminal cases of higher value and those beyond the jurisdiction of lower courts. It also handles cases involving family and property disputes, special commercial laws, and other cases assigned to its jurisdiction. Additionally, it serves as an appellate court for decisions of lower courts within its territorial jurisdiction.

What happens if the judges on court of appeals decide a trial was unfair?

Actually a court of appeals cannot decide that. A court of appeals can only decide whether or not the trial court correctly followed procedures and existing legal precedence. It is entirely possible for procedures and legal precedence to be completely unfair (they have been many times) but if the trial court properly followed them, the court of appeals must support the trial court's decision. If the court of appeals decides that the trial court failed to follow procedures and/or existing legal precedent, then the case must be retried in a trial court.
