Publication : Factsheet

The Appeal Court is a centralized appeal court, located in Phnom Penh, empowered to hear all appeals on questions of law and/or fact in criminal and civil judgments handed down in all first instance courts throughout the Kingdom of Cambodia (“Cambodia”). Any steps to introduce regional Appeal Courts will increase the accessibility of appeal proceedings to all Cambodians who may wish to appeal civil or criminal judgments but who face obstacles of geographical isolation and insufficient means to travel to Phnom Penh – and would therefore represent a positive step in terms of access to justice in Cambodia
