If you're involved in an appeal under section 66, you can take your case to the High Court if you think there's a question about the law. This means if you believe a legal rule wasn't applied correctly, you can ask the High Court to look at it.
When you do this, the High Court will use special rules to handle your case. These rules are called the High Court Rules 2016. They will also use parts of the District Court Act 2016, specifically sections 126 to 130. These rules will be adjusted as needed to fit your case, just as if you were appealing under section 124 of the District Court Act.
