The correct answer is D. The suspect is no longer considered guilty of the crime.

Explanation:

In law, the appeal phase refers to a process in which one of the parties request a higher court, usually the Supreme court to revise the decision taken by a lower court and determine whether the decision taken followed the principles of law and is ratified or overturned in the case there were errors in the process of interpreting law. This means during the appeal phase it is possible to overturn or change a previous decision and therefore if higher court finds errors in a decision previously taken the suspect is not guilty of the crime which can lead to the legal process to continue as it can restore the case to an initial state or end with the case as the person is declared innocent. Therefore, if a court overturns a verdict during the appeals phase the suspect is no longer considered guilty of crime.
