92: Jurisdiction of High Court

You could also call this:

"The High Court can make important decisions and review appeals about this law"

The High Court can make decisions about two types of legal matters related to this law. First, it can handle requests for orders or for the court to use any other power that this part of the law allows. Second, it can deal with appeals that come from decisions made in the District Court about matters covered in this part of the law. This means that if you're not happy with a decision made in the District Court about something related to this law, you can ask the High Court to look at it again.
