Once an appeal is filed and the court agrees to hear it, it is a waiting game. There is no testimony in an appeals case so you don't go back to court. The appeals process is there to make sure no errors were done courtside. It is there to review evidence, etc. and make sure the court proceedings were done appropriately and to all legal specifications. It does not find guilt or innocence. If the appeals court finds something wrong the case will be thrown out and you can still be charged again. If they find all is well, the conviction will stick.
