Suppose someone has lost a court case. They may still wish to appeal though. 

In Hebrew, that’s להגיש עתירה[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/עתירה-#.m4a” /] – to submit an appeal, where עתירה[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/עתירה-#.m4a” /] means appeal.

For example:

[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/עתירה-#.m4a” /]הם הגישו עתירה לבג”ץ (בית המשפט הגבוה לצדק).

They submitted an appeal to Bagatz (Supreme Court for Justice).
