Crimes Act 1961

Appeals - Appeal against conviction or sentence

385: Determination of appeals in ordinary cases

You could also call this:

“This law rule explained how judges decided if someone's complaint about their punishment was right or wrong, but it's not used anymore.”

This section of the law has been removed. It used to be about how appeals are decided in regular cases, but it’s no longer part of the current law. The government took it out on 1 July 2013. If you want to know more about how appeals work now, you might need to look at newer parts of the law.
