Crown Appellate Courts

The Crown Appellate Courts are the second highest courts of the Star Kingdom of Manticore.
In the Manticore System, the Crown Appellate Courts are organized on a planetary level and are purely appellate in nature, accepting cases appealed from the Crown District Courts. They do not accept cases appealed from the Duke's Bench Courts unless the case in questions touches on the constitutionality of planetary statutes.
The number of circuits within a Crown Appellate Court depends on the volume of cases handled by the Court.
Judges for the Crown Appellate Courts are selected by the Monarch with advice from the Prime Minister and these courts sit with three judge panels hearing each case. ()
