As I posted: "The Appeals Court decides only whether the judge made mistakes in understanding and applying the law. If the appellate court decides that a mistake was made that changed the outcome, it will direct the lower court to conduct a new trial"

As a practical matter, appeals may not be made on "new evidence." Each appeal addresses the particular points of law of the case being appealed.

Listing any number of cases which were overturned on appeal without citing the reason is pointless.
