What Are Criminal Appeals?

If you have been convicted or sentenced and believe the outcome was wrong or the penalty too harsh, you may appeal under the Crimes (Appeal and Review) Act 2001 (NSW). Appeals from the Local Court to the District Court must be lodged within 28 days of sentencing. A severity appeal allows the District Court to rehear the matter and impose a different sentence. A conviction appeal can result in the guilty verdict being quashed. Fresh evidence may be introduced on appeal.
