An appeal transfers the action to the court of second instance within the limits of the claims upon which it was instituted before the court of first instance. Neither the Court of Appeal nor the litigants may contravene this, as it pertains to public policy and deprives a party of one of the two levels of litigation. - 510 - Civil Procedure
