The paper examines the essence of the appellate court as a controlling judicial instance and clarifies the basic principle according to which the appellate court works and issues judicial acts. Based on this, a check was made to match the nature of the appellate court proceedings with the nature of the classification of his powers as proposed in art. 334 of the Bulgarian Criminal Procedure Code. At the end of the paper, a new classification of his powers, compatible with the nature of appellate judicial review, was developed.
