Evidence and document review
Our review covers charge and defence papers, evidence list, hearing records and, for an appeal, the judgment and notification record. We identify what supports your position and what needs clarification or further evidence.
How is an ordinary criminal appeal lodged?
Articles 194–195 provide a 30-day period for appeal or review of a first-instance criminal judgment and a memorandum lodged with the issuing court. Identify the judgment, grounds and relief sought and preserve filing proof. Check the recorded judgment-delivery and notification events to calculate the start; do not count only from an informal message. Mandatory review of certain judgments and cassation are distinct routes. For trial, organise the accusation, disputed facts and evidence. For appeal, identify the judgment, reasons, notification and specific alleged errors. The two stages require different work; a general disagreement with the case should be converted into precise issues for the current stage.
