Answer:

Hi,

The person can appeal in an appellate court

Step-by-step explanation:

In most states a person has 30 days to file a motion to appeal where the appellate court reads and considers the appeal. In their decision, they might agree with the ruling made by the lower court , require an argument or cancel the ruling and request for a retrial. A person will have to accept the initial verdict if the decision is upheld by the appellate court.

Best wishes!
