The appeals courts do not usually consider new witnesses or new evidence. Appeals in either civil or criminal cases are usually based on arguments that there were errors in the trial's procedure or errors in the judge's interpretation of the law.
The 14 courts of appeals have intermediate appellate jurisdiction in both civil and criminal cases appealed from district or county courts. Each court of appeals has jurisdiction in a specific geographical region of the state. Each court is presided over by a chief justice and has at least two other justices.
Appeals cases don't involve new affidavits, hearing witnesses or otherwise conducting a new trial. Rather, cases on appeal involve reviews of the case for legal errors at trial. Such reviews are done by examining the court clerk's record and the court reporter's record, which your defense attorney must secure.
The average rule of thumb for the time of appeal was roughly 7-14 months from beginning to end. But appeals can potentially take longer, or in other cases, go more quickly if it is an appeal required to be expedited by law.
