Appellate Authority

An Appellate Authority is a higher-level body or official that reviews decisions made by lower courts or administrative agencies. When a party believes a decision is unfair or incorrect, they can appeal to this authority for a reassessment. The Appellate Authority checks the original case for legal errors, helps ensure justice, and can confirm, overturn, or modify the initial ruling. This process is vital for upholding the rule of law and protecting individuals' rights within the legal system.
