A quick definition of allow the appeal:
Allow the appeal: When someone disagrees with a decision made by a court, they can ask a higher court to review the decision. If the higher court decides that the original decision was wrong, they can "allow the appeal" and change the decision. This is also called "reversing" the decision. In British English, "allow the appeal" is the more common way to say it.
A more thorough explanation:
Definition: To allow the appeal means to overturn a previous judgment on appeal. It is the equivalent expression of "reverse" in British English.
Example: The defendant's lawyer filed an appeal against the court's decision. After reviewing the case, the higher court decided to allow the appeal and overturned the previous judgment.
Explanation: When a party is not satisfied with the decision of a lower court, they can file an appeal to a higher court. If the higher court finds that the lower court made an error in its judgment, it can allow the appeal and reverse the decision. This means that the previous judgment is no longer valid, and a new decision will be made based on the evidence presented in the appeal.
