The Appellate Court affirms the trial court decision if it finds there has been no error committed in the application of the law, or if the error was so minimal that it made little difference in the outcome of the trial. 3 judges hear an appellate case and a majority vote of 2 is required to decide the case. They do not relitigate the facts of the original trial. Attorneys present arguments to the Appellate Court about whether the trial court made an error in applying the law.
