Haha, imagine an appellate court just rolling dice to decide cases. 'Oops, looks like we have to reverse that conviction. Sorry, trial judge, better luck next time!'

D) is just plain wrong. Appellate courts won't overturn a conviction just because of a harmless error. The error has to have actually affected the outcome.

I'm going with C). Appellate courts usually give you a chance to appeal, even if you missed the deadline. Better late than never, right?

But appellate courts usually don't hear an appeal if the petition was not filed in a timely manner, so I still think A is correct.

B) makes sense to me. In civil law countries, the appellate court's job is to check the legal reasoning, not the facts found by the lower court.

A) sounds about right. Appellate courts in common law systems typically don't re-evaluate the facts, they just look at whether the law was applied properly.
