If a defender who submits an appeal appeals, he shall submit it to the people's court that originally tried the case. The date when the Court of First Instance receives the appeal is the date of appeal. The people's court that originally tried the case shall be responsible for transferring it to the people's procuratorate at the same level and the other party within three days. The people's court that originally tried the case is responsible for transferring the case file, relevant evidence and appeal to the people's court at a higher level. Some defendants are willing to submit the appeal directly to the people's court at a higher level because they don't trust the judge of the original trial or in order to be faster. In fact, it takes time to hand it over to a higher court. If the defendant, private prosecutor, plaintiff and defendant in incidental civil action directly appeal to the people's court of second instance, the people's court of second instance shall submit the appeal to the people's court of first instance within three days.
