In United States appellate procedure, an appeal is a petition for review of a case that has been decided by a court of law.

This can mean that where it is the defendant who appeals, the name of the case in the law reports reverses ( in some cases twice ) as the appeals work their way up the court hierarchy.

The second is the collateral appeal or post-conviction petition, in which the petitioner-appellant files the appeal in a court of first instance — usually the court that tried the case.

Generally, an appeal of the judgment will also allow appeal of all other orders or rulings made by the trial court in the course of the case.

However, certain critical interlocutory court orders, such as the denial of a request for an interim injunction, or an order holding a person in contempt of court, can be appealed immediately although the case may otherwise not have been fully disposed of.

The highest state court, generally known as the Supreme Court, exercises discretion over whether it will review the case.

It may, in addition, send the case back (" remand " or " remit ") to the lower court for further proceedings to remedy the defect.

This might be the proper standard of review, for example, if the lower court resolved the case by granting a pre-trial motion to dismiss or motion for summary judgment which is usually based only upon written submissions to the trial court and not on any trial testimony.

After an appeal is heard, the " mandate " is a formal notice of a decision by a court of appeal ; this notice is transmitted to the trial court and, when filed by the clerk of the trial court, constitutes the final judgment on the case, unless the appeal court has directed further proceedings in the trial court.
