When you appeal a decision, the appeal court has a job to do. The court's job is to decide on your appeal, but it must follow certain rules, which are in sections 337 and 338. These rules apply when you abandon or the court dismisses your appeal, and they are part of subparts 2 to 10, which you can find out more about by looking at the subparts 2 to 10 information.
The court must consider sections 337 and 338, which you can read about by following these links: section 337 and section 338, to know what to do with your appeal. You can look at these sections to understand how they might affect your appeal. The court's decision will depend on what these sections say.
