Appellate courts primarily address issues related to the interpretation and application of law, ensuring that trial court procedures were followed correctly and that legal standards were applied accurately. They typically review claims of errors in legal rulings, jury instructions, and evidentiary matters. Additionally, appellate courts may evaluate constitutional issues and the sufficiency of evidence to support a verdict. Their focus is not to re-evaluate factual determinations but to ensure that the law was correctly upheld in lower court proceedings.
