Appellate jurisdiction in criminal matters allows Supreme Court appeals where High Court reverses acquittal or certifies a case fit for appeal. An appeal to the Supreme Court lies from a High Court criminal judgment, final order or sentence where the High Court reverses an acquittal and sentences to death, withdraws a case and convicts with death sentence, or certifies under article 134A that the case is fit for appeal, subject to article 145(1) provisions and High Court conditions; Parliament may by law confer additional powers on the Supreme Court to hear criminal appeals subject to specified conditions and limitations.
