Terms Used In Kansas Statutes 48-2921
- 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.
- 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.

Ann. § 48-2924 in which the right to such review is not waived, or an appeal is not withdrawn, under Kan. Stat. Ann. § 48-2917, the record of trial and action thereon shall be transmitted to the judge advocate general for appropriate action.
