What is true about appeals? A. Appeals are often not granted.
B. A decision by a state supreme court can be appealed to a U.S. district court.
C. There is a limit to how many appeals can be made by a party.
D. Appeals must be granted within 1 year.
The correct answer is A. Appeals are often not granted.
Explanation: The appeals process typically involves a higher court reviewing the decision made by a lower court. However, it is common for appeals to be denied, meaning that the higher court does not agree to hear the case or does not find sufficient grounds to overturn the previous ruling. Options B and D are incorrect because a state supreme court’s decision generally cannot be appealed to a U.S. district court, and there isn’t a specific one-year limit for all appeals. While there are limits in some cases, it varies by jurisdiction. Option C is also incorrect; while there can be restrictions, it is not universally true that there’s a limit on the number of appeals a party can make.
