Answer:

An appellate court can <u>modify</u> a lower court's decision

Explanation:

When a case is tried in a lower court, the losing party is allowed to appeal the lower court's decision if it does not agree with it.

In such instances, the case is then tried in an appellate court. The <u>appellate court, on review of evidence and after hearing the merits of the case, has the power to </u><u>modify</u><u> or reverse the decision of the lower court.</u>
