Appeal refers to a legal document that a party refuses to accept the judgment or ruling of the court of first instance, and submits an explanation to the court at the next higher level in the appeal procedure within a certain period of time (civil case 15, criminal case 10) before the judgment takes effect.

Pay attention to this question:

(1) must appeal to the people's court at a higher level with jurisdiction. Usually, after the judgment or ruling of the first instance, there will be the words "If you are not satisfied with this judgment (or ruling), you can appeal to the XX Intermediate People's Court within 15 days (ruling is 10 days)", so you just need to fill it in as required.

(2) The contents of the appeal must be clear. Generally speaking, we should explain our own views on the contents of the first-instance judgment, put forward the facts identified in the first instance and the mistakes in applying the law, and request the higher court to correct them.
