Save as hereafter in this Code provided, any person who is dissatisfied with any judgment, sentence or order of the Summary Court in any criminal cause or matter to which that person is a party may appeal to the Grand Court against such judgment, sentence or order either by motion on matters of law or fact (or both) or by way of case stated on a point of law only as hereafter provided: Provided that in no case shall the complainant appeal from a decision dismissing a complaint except by way of a stated case on a point of law.
For the purposes of any appeal the Director of Public Prosecutions shall be deemed to be a party to any criminal cause or matter other than those in which the proceedings were instituted and carried on as a private prosecution and in which the conduct of such proceedings has not been taken over by the Director of Public Prosecutions under section 12(5).
