The 5 Steps of the Appeals Process The 5 Stages of The Appeal Process. Step 1: Hiring an Appellate Attorney (Before Your Appeal) Step 2: Filing the Notice of Appeal. Step 3: Preparing the Record on Appeal. Step 4: Researching and Writing Your Appeal. Step 5: Oral Argument.
What Is an Out-of-Time Appeal? An out-of-time appeal is an application submitted to the tribunal after the standard time limit for appeals has passed. In typical cases, an appeal must be lodged within a strict time frame.
To appeal is to ask earnestly for help or support, on grounds of reason, justice, common humanity, etc.: to appeal for contributions to a cause. To petition is to ask by written request, by prayer, or the like, that something be granted: to petition for more playgrounds.
An error of law is the strongest type of ground for appeal because the appellate court reviewing the case does not have to give any weight to what the trial court judge did. The appellate court will look at the law that was supposed to be applied and decide whether or not the trial court judge made a mistake.
If you submit your appeal outside the time limit you must provide reasons for the delay so that the adjudicator can decide whether to allow your appeal out of time.

Even after a defendant is found guilty, they can appeal to the Circuit Court if the defendant believes they were wrongly convicted or the sentence was too harsh. An appeal is not another trial but an opportunity for the defendant to try to raise specific errors that might have occurred at trial.
The entire process, from submitting your appeal to attending your hearing, can take 6 to 12 months, or longer if your case is complex or requires expert input. Due to the high number of cases, there can be delays.
