  • Appellate: About appeals; an appellate court has the power to review the judgement of another lower court or tribunal.
  • Trial: A hearing that takes place when the defendant pleads "not guilty" and witnesses are required to come to court to give evidence.

Where a case has been remanded by the appropriate appellate court for a new trial, the clerk of the court to which said case has been remanded must issue subpoenas for all the witnesses in the case in the same manner as if the case had been continued.
