Sec. 7. Appeals.
Any person aggrieved at the decision of the magistrate may appeal therefrom to such higher court as is now or may hereafter be provided for appeals from justices' courts in criminal cases, and in accordance with the provisions of the laws of Arizona regulating the same.
Annotation--Despite the fact that an appeal to Superior Court under this section and general law is tried de nova, it is not necessary that any information be filed and the cause may be prosecuted by the city attorney rather than the county attorney, Ex Parte Coone, 67 Ariz. 299, 195 P. 2d 149.
