Hierarchy of Criminal Courts for Appeals
At the subordinate level to the High Court there are broadly four levels of courts
for any territory in a state. These are Executive Magistrates, Judicial Magistrates
of Second Class, Judicial Magistrates of the first class (Metropolitan Magistrate
in a Metropolitan area) and the courts of session in the increasing hierarchical
order.
A person convicted by a Metropolitan Magistrate or an Assistant Session Judge or
Magistrate of First class or of the Second class may appeal to court of sessions.
Any person convicted on a trial held by Sessions judge or an Additional Sessions
judge or on a trial held by any other court may appeal to High Court.
