Sanctuary

In 1997, TV Guide named this one of television's best individual series episodes of all time.

Shambala Green says that she plans to argue the matter of a church being a refuge from arrest in front of the Circuit Court, the Appellate Division, the Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court. However the Appellate Division and the Court of Appeals are one and the same, they are just two different names for the same court which is also commonly referred to as the Appellate Court. In some states and countries it is called the Appellate Division and in others the Court of Appeals. It is the second highest court in the United States when it comes to hearing appeals, when a ruling by a Circuit Court judge or jury verdict is appealed the case goes to the Appellate Court where a determination is made on whether or not the Circuit Court's finding were proper and constitutional. If the appeal is on a jury verdict in a Circuit Court and the Appellate judges rule in favor of the defense then the defendant is granted a new trial. 98% of all appeals are decided in the Appellate Court and end there, the only court that is higher than the Appellate Court and has the authority to overrule them is the Supreme Court, however it is rare for the Supreme Court to overrule an Appellate Court ruling, only 2% of appeals are chosen to be reviewed by the Supreme Court.
