Attorney's agency refers to the act of entrusting a lawyer to represent himself in the proceedings in order to file a lawsuit. Then, when a lawyer represents litigation business, can he sign for it on behalf of the client? Can a lawyer appeal on behalf of his client? What are the legal conditions for appeal? Let's sort out the relevant contents about whether the attorney can sign the appeal for you.

1. Can a lawyer sign an appeal?

No, agency litigation is only in the course of litigation. The appeal requires the signature of the parties concerned.

The client's name must be signed in the indictment and appeal. If you sign on behalf of the customer, the customer should know and agree.

Secondly, the type of appeal.

1, criminal complaint

It is a written lawsuit in which the criminal litigant or his legal representative refuses to accept the judgment or ruling of the people's court of first instance, and requests the people's court at the next higher level to cancel or change the ruling of the original trial and retrial in accordance with legal procedures within the statutory appeal period.

2. Civil appeals

It is a written statement that the civil litigant refuses to accept the judgment or ruling of the people's court of first instance, sets the procedures and time limit according to law, appeals to the people's court at a higher level, and requests cancellation, modification or retrial of the judgment or ruling of the original trial.

3. Administrative appeals

It is a legal document that the parties in administrative litigation refuse to accept the ruling or judgment made by the court of first instance on administrative cases, and appeal to the court at the next higher level according to law within the statutory time limit, demanding cancellation and change of the original judgment.

It must be filed against the first-instance ruling or judgment of local people's courts at all levels, which contains two meanings. Only the judgments made by local people's courts at all levels, that is, the people's courts below the higher level, can be brought to court, and the judgments made by the Supreme People's Court cannot be appealed; Only when the people's court refuses to accept the judgment of first instance can it appeal. China's courts implement the system of two-instance final judgment, and the judgment of the second instance is the final judgment, and no appeal can be filed.

Generally speaking, appeals can only be handled in accordance with the procedures prescribed by relevant laws. If it is a second-instance judgment, because it has been recognized as final judgment, it cannot be appealed, and the defense words are generally handled and recognized by the defender according to law within the scope permitted by law.

3. What are the legal conditions for appeal?

1, there must be qualified appellants and appellees.

2. It must be a judgment ruling that allows appeal according to law.

3. Meet the statutory appeal time limit.

Article 147 of the Civil Procedure Law stipulates that if a party refuses to accept the judgment of the local people's court of first instance, he shall have the right to appeal to the people's court at the next higher level within 15 days from the date when the judgment is served; if he refuses to accept the ruling of the local people's court of first instance, he shall have the right to appeal to the people's court at the next higher level within 10 days from the date when the judgment is served on the party. If the written judgment or ruling cannot be served on the parties at the same time, the appeal period shall be counted from the day after they receive the written judgment or ruling.

The above is about whether the attorney can sign the appeal for you. If the agent is authorized by the party concerned, he can appeal on behalf of the party concerned. However, the signature of the parties in the appeal cannot be signed on their behalf, but should be signed by the defendant himself.
