Seksyen 323 Kanun Tatacara Jenayah ada menyebut berkaitan kuasa memanggil rekod Mahkamah Rendah. Seksyen 323(1) adalah seperti yang berikut:-
Seseorang Hakim boleh memanggil dan memeriksa rekod sebarang perbicaraan Mahkamah Jenayah Rendah dengan tujuan memuaskan hatinya tentang kebetulan, kebenaran atau munasabah sebarang pendapat, hukuman, atau perintah yang telah direkodkan atau dijatuhkan, dan tentang mengikut aturan pembicaraan yang dijalankan oleh Mahkamah Rendah berkenaan.
Seterusnya, dalam kes Liaw Kwai Wah & Anor v. Public Prosecutor [1987] ada menyebut tujuan kuasa semakan jenayah ini seperti yang berikut:-
"We would observe that the power of revision is to be exercised in accordance with the law for the time being in force relating to criminal procedure. In the present case that law is the Criminal Procedure Code. We would also observe that the object of the revisionary powers provided for in the Code is:
... to confer upon criminal courts a kind of paternal or supervisory jurisdiction, in order to correct miscarriage of justice arising from misconception of law, irregularity of procedure, neglect of proper precautions or apparent harshness of treatment, which has resulted on the one hand in some injury to the due maintenance of law and order, or on the other hand, in some undeserved hardship to individuals."
