Section 380

Appeal

Why this exists

Because a court's power to trigger a criminal complaint against someone (or refuse to) can seriously affect a person's rights, this section provides a check: a higher court can review that decision on appeal. But to prevent the matter from dragging on indefinitely through repeated challenges, the law also makes that appellate decision final and closes the door on further revision.
