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.

(a) An appeal may be taken from:

(1) An order denying a motion to compel arbitration;

(2) an order granting a motion to stay arbitration;

(3) an order confirming or denying confirmation of an award;

(4) an order modifying or correcting an award;

(5) an order vacating an award without directing a rehearing; or

(6) a final judgment entered pursuant to Kan. Stat. Ann. §§ 5-423 through 5-453, and amendments thereto.

(b) An appeal under this section must be taken as from an order or judgment in a civil action.
