Terms Used In Missouri Laws 426.230
- 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.
- State: when applied to any of the United States, includes the District of Columbia and the territories, and the words "United States" includes such district and territories. See Missouri Laws 1.020
- Trial: A hearing that takes place when the defendant pleads "not guilty" and witnesses are required to come to court to give evidence.
Upon such appeal being allowed and certified, as in section 426.220 is required, the court shall become possessed of the case, and shall proceed to hear and determine the same, in the same manner as if such case was pending before a circuit judge on an application for trial de novo from the judgment of an associate circuit judge; and appeals may be taken from the judgment of the court, in the same manner as appeals are now allowed by law from judgments of circuit judges in this state.
