Role as an appellate court

The request was partially successful.

Evan McLaughlin

Dear High Court of the Justiciary,

We know a lot about the functioning of the Court when it sits as a Court of first instance. I would like to learn more about the Court when it is hearing appeals from lower courts.

I request the following:

1) How does the Court sit when hearing appeals?
2) How many appeals did the Court hear in 2019?

Yours faithfully,

Evan McLaughlin
