Petition of appeal
AI Assist
Summary
An appeal must be a written petition presented by the appellant or by their pleader. Unless the court orders otherwise, the petition should be accompanied by a copy of the judgment or order being appealed. If the copy is missing, the court may allow the appeal to proceed without it or order the copy to be produced.
Example
Priya is convicted in a trial and wants to challenge the decision. Her pleader files a written petition of appeal in court and attaches a copy of the conviction order. Because the judgment copy is attached, the filing meets the requirement; had the copy been missing, the court could have ordered it produced or allowed the appeal to proceed without it.
Bare Act
