# clsAppealCollection



`clsAppealCollection` groups appeal records for LegalNet's workers' compensation legal-case workflows, giving callers a typed result set for retrieval, editing, validation, or save operations instead of raw rows.*



## Purpose



Use this collection when code needs to work with multiple appeal records as one unit. Where the source class defines additional methods, they load, filter, validate, save, or otherwise batch-process the underlying items.*



## Context

- Namespace: `SAIF.Business.Claim.Legal.LegalNet`

- Assembly/package: `SAIF.Business.Claim.Legal`
