What is the difference between justification and appellate justification?

Justification generally refers to the reasoning or rationale behind a decision or action, explaining why it is considered valid or acceptable. Appellate justification, on the other hand, specifically pertains to the reasoning used by appellate courts when reviewing lower court decisions, focusing on legal principles and precedents to determine whether the initial ruling was correct. While both involve providing reasons, appellate justification is constrained by legal standards and the review process, whereas general justification can be broader and more subjective.

Are there juries in appeals cases?

Juries are not used in the appellate courts, and the appellate courts are composed solely of judges ("jurists," as they are called, but not jurors). Juries are used in trial courts to decide disputed questions of fact. Disputed questions of fact should all be resolved in the trial court and therefore are ordinarily not the subject of appeals. Appeals are taken to challenge the correctness of a trial court's rulings on the questions of law that were before it, rather than any questions of fact; and the judges in the appellate courts are ruling on whether or not the trial court committed any errors in its rulings on the questions of law that were before it during the trial and in any pre-trial or post-trial motions.
