- Appeal: A request made after a trial, asking another court (usually the court of appeals) to decide whether the trial was conducted properly. To make such a request is "to appeal" or "to take an appeal." One who appeals is called the appellant.
Any party aggrieved by the judgment of the Superior Court of Guam may appeal therefrom to the Supreme Court of Guam, as in other cases of appeal thereto from the Superior Court, except on an expedited basis. During the pendency of proceedings on appeal, and until final determination thereof, the person declared elected by the Superior Court of Guam shall be entitled to the office in like manner as if no appeal had been taken. The Supreme Court of Guam shall provide an expedited appeal process for election contests.
