You can appeal a guilty verdict if you file a notice of appeal within 30 days. If you plead guilty you can also appeal unless you waived your right to appeal, which would severely limit the grounds to appeal. less than 5% of appeals are successful, and that just gets you a new trial, not a dismissal.You have a right to an assigned lawyer to appeal, but if you want to win you should retain an appeal expert, his chances are a little better.
