  "text": "(This note is not part of the Rules)\nThese Rules prescribe the procedures which apply in the Court of Appeal in relation to prosecution appeals under section 43 of the Justice Act (Northern Ireland) 2011 (“the 2011 Act”).\nSection 43 of the 2011 Act provides for a prosecution right of appeal to the Court of Appeal against the failure by a judge of the Crown Court to make a banning order under section 41 of the 2011 Act. A banning order, made on conviction, prohibits a person from entering any premises for the purpose of attending regulated matches. Specifically,\nRule 3 prescribes the manner in which, and the time at which, notice of appeal (where the judge of the Crown Court has granted leave) or application for leave to appeal shall be given. It also prescribes the documents which should accompany the notice and provides that the Court may extend the time within which the notice of appeal or application for leave to appeal shall be given.\nRule 4 provides that the defendant, if he wishes to oppose the appeal or application for leave, shall do so by serving a response in Form 2.\nRule 5 prescribes that a defendant in custody may not appear in person unless the Court so directs.\nRules 6 to 11 make supplementary provision.",
