The status, position, or role of being an appellant in a legal case.
From 'appellant' (one who appeals) plus the suffix -cy, meaning the state of being an appellant.
Your appellancy—whether you're the one appealing or defending—completely changes how you argue in court, which is why switching roles from trial to appeal requires rethinking your entire strategy.
