This category encompasses appellate courts of Australia (including federal appellate courts as well as state/territory appellate courts). For purposes of this category, "appellate court" is defined to include both (a) a court whose primary purpose is to exercise appellate jurisdiction and (b) a court with at least one division whose primary purpose is to exercise appellate jurisdiction.

Courts that are primarily courts of first instance but do have some appellate jurisdiction should not be included in this category unless they go by a different name (such as "Court of Appeal") when exercising appellate jurisdiction.
