It should be noted that after reviewing your inquiry and legal scrutiny we would like to inform you that to appeal a penal decision you have to follow the instructions of the article 234 of the Federal Law No. (35) of 1992 Concerning The Criminal Procedural Law

Article (234)

*  As amended by Federal Law No. (29) of 2005 dated 30/11/2005

The appeal is lodged through a report to be submitted to the clerks’ office of the criminal court within fifteen days as of the date of pronouncing the judgment in the presence of the parties or from the date of the judgment rendered in the opposition.

Should the condemned party be in prison, he may submit his appeal report to the officer in charge of the prison who has to forward it forthwith to the criminal clerk’s office.

If the condemned is bailed the court of appeal may release him against an undertaking or any other guarantee as deemed by the court until the settlement of the appeal.

The public prosecutor may lodge his appeal within a time limit of thirty days from the time the judgment is rendered.
