Which court must hear an appeal to be heard?

• A. Court with Superior Jurisdiction
• B. District Court
• C. Municipal Court
• D. Court of Appeals

Answer: (A)

Appeals are decided by a court that has appellate authority to review decisions from lower courts. This is the court with superior jurisdiction. It has the power to examine whether the lower court correctly applied the law and followed proper procedures, and it can reverse or modify that decision if errors are found. The other options are typically trial-level courts that handle original proceedings and don’t have general authority to review or overturn another court’s ruling. The Court of Appeals is an appellate body, but the principle being tested is that an appeal must go to the court that has superior (appellate) jurisdiction to hear it.
