When a case is resolved by the lower trial court, the losing party can appeal that decision to a higher, reviewing court. The lawyers for each side submit briefs, which are written versions of their arguments as to why the trial court committed some kind of error. After the appellate judges review the briefs, the lawyers conduct oral argument before the appellate panel of judges. They then render their decision.
An appellate brief is a persuasive paper written on why the lower court's decision was either correct or incorrect. Appellate judges decide to uphold a case or overrule it based on these briefs.

Generally Appellate Judges are not looking for anything when they review a case. An appeal lawyer has presented his reasons why the appellate court should grant relief for his client. He lists the reasons on his brief. It refers to specific lines on transcript and to relevant case law. The judges read his brief. The opponent's attorney (prosecutor if criminal or plaintiff if civil) may enter his brief and explains why the other lawyer is wrong. The Appellate Judges examine the arguments and make their decision. (A lot of the work is done by law clerks just out of law school. They check the legal references in the law library or on line. Then they bring the relevant ones to the judges with their suggested decisions. The Judges read the clerks conclusions but make their own decisions.
Yes, that is one reason there is an appellate court.
