Court of Appeals of Tennessee

The Court of Appeals of Tennessee is a state-level appellate court that reviews decisions made by lower trial courts. Its primary role is to ensure the correct application of the law and fair procedures. The court does not re-examine facts or question witness credibility but focuses on whether legal errors occurred that could affect the outcome. It has multiple panels of judges that decide cases, and its rulings can be appealed further to the Tennessee Supreme Court. The Court of Appeals helps maintain consistency and fairness in the state's legal system by providing a valuable check on trial court decisions.
