Cases are forwarded, via petition, to the Courts of Appeal with requests that the court review that case to determine if the case was conducted lawfully, the verdict was founded in law, and/or the case was tried properly. These cases are usually forwarded by the losing sides in an effort to gain a ruling in their favor. All cases that are forwarded are reviewed but not all that are forwarded will be accepted.
