No, the ground for appeal is the opinion and request of the accused, that's why it is important to write the reason for appealing.
When the reason is stated, appeal goes.
Many are granted, believe me.

LisaRose...did you read my comment? Or are you just guessing?
The members of appeal committees are chosen for their qualities, in my experience, they or we were there without prejustice, looking for an escape for the accused. But than again, you have to try to judge if the accused was repentant at the moment of the first committee.

@Slimboyfat and others...I have been on a fixed appeal committee for years in miss-service. More than 50% of the decisions of the original committees were totally wrong. Makes sense as in third world countries education is low, there were few elders and those serving were end 20thies.
What I always ciriticized was the fact that although the whole theocratic judge-system is based on US rules, why can't the accused not have a lawyer?
recently i heard through video link to our kh a talk by bro loesch where he attacked university study (again) but this time he prefaced his remarks by saying, and i quote, "the faithful slave does not forbid you to go to university.
" so this was a bad start as his following remarks made it clear that this was just a way of seeming reasonable while basically saying that we shouldn't do it.
he went on to use an illustration i think he has used before about a man with ocd who decided to kill himself.

Poopie. Write a letter asap to the CO, branch and the committee.
Write you appeal and do not agree with the decusion. Important! State why you do not agree.
Are the rules not correctly applied, or do you feel you showed repentance. Etc.
The CO will form an appeal committee and will give you a second chance with a new committee. Be prepaired because the original three will show up. They will not be in a good mood.

i googled my childhood best friend that i grew up with in the cult.
he's my age and has shunned me for the past 4 years despite my efforts to reach out to him.today, i noticed a listing online that states he is a director of his congregation.
i suppose only elders can fill this position (he wasn't an elder when i was a jw).
