(1) If the Appellate Court does not dismiss the appeal summarily, it shall cause
notice of the time and place at which such appeal will be heard to be given\u2014
(i) to the appellant or his advocate;
(ii) to such officer as the State Government may appoint in this behalf;
(iii) if the appeal is from a judgment of conviction in a case instituted upon
complaint, to the complainant;
(iv) if the appeal is under section 419 or section 420, to the accused, and shall
also furnish such officer, complainant and accused with a copy of the grounds of
appeal.
(2) The Appellate Court shall then send for the record of the case, if such record is not
already available in that Court, and hear the parties:
Provided that if the appeal is only as to the extent or the legality of the sentence, the
Court may dispose of the appeal without sending for the record.
(3) Where the only ground for appeal from a conviction is the alleged severity of the
sentence, the appellant shall not, except with the leave of the Court, urge or be heard in
support of any other ground.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
