First sentence: Appeals in criminal cases have been an integral feature of our criminal jurisprudence since their introduction in the several colonial acts modelled upon the English Crown Cases Act of 1848.  In spite of this the institution of criminal appeals itself has never been subjected to a systematic scrutiny either as to its development or its effects upon our criminal jurisprudence. This thesis attempts in part to remedy this deficiency.
