A quick definition of Lord of Appeal:

Lord of Appeal: A special person who helps make important decisions in a big group called the House of Lords. At least three of these special people need to be there to make a decision.

This group includes the Lord Chancellor, the Lords of Appeal in Ordinary, and peers who have held high judicial offices, such as ex-chancellors and judges of the superior court in Great Britain and Ireland.

Example: Lord Denning was a Lord of Appeal who served in the House of Lords from 1957 to 1982. He was known for his influential judgments and his contributions to the development of English law.
