回复116楼:LOL,还只适用用刑事案件,脑子好大的包。
In civil cases, a party is not considered legally liable until a final judgment is reached. Appeals can alter or overturn a lower court's decision, so a judgment is not final until appeals are resolved.
In the U.S. legal system, a person is considered legally guilty only after all appeals and legal processes have been exhausted, and a final verdict is rendered.
