DEFINATELY a NOUN. because .... it has "the" in front of it, its in the beginning of the sentence, and u can ask it" what was made by the lawyer was rejected by teh judges? "the appeal" so therefore appeal is a noun. and its also a "thing".
so here are soem hints to look for:
-nouns tend to be at the beginning of a sentence(doesnt mean they always are though)
- if u can ask "what" with the entire sentence, like i did above
-nouns are things, names, subjects

The word "appeal" as it is used in this sentence is a noun. It is a "thing" and the subject of the sentence. Using the word "the" before "appeal" is also a clue that it is a noun. Remember that verbs are action words. As a verb you would use the word like this: "I appeal to your sense of fair play"

the famous use of the word 'dowdy' is as an adjective besides the undeniable fact that in the process the word foundation & heritage from the 88a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e5565088a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e5565088a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e556500s it grow for use as a noun and then an adjective from the 88a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e55650670s. 88a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e5565088a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e5565088a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e556500s (n.), 88a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e55650670s (adj.), probable dim. of dour "poorly dressed lady" (early 88a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e556504c.), of uncertain foundation. the famous use of dowdy (n.) is maximum probable a returned-formation from dowdy. "If plaine or homely, wee saie she is a Dodie or a slut" [88a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e5565088a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e5565088a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e5565088a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e55650]. this can be the final sentence to apply 'dowdy', besides the reality that in the process 88a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e5565088a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e5565088a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e5565088a199611ac2b85bd3f76e8ee7e55650 they spelled it in yet in a various way.

"was" is the verb or action in the sentence...to find the subject of the sentence, ask what "was"....answer, the appeal was...the word appeal is the subject, and used as a noun in this sentence.

The word is a noun in this context (the fact that it has a definite article - the - preceding it, tips you off to this).

Noun. Example of verb: "My client has instructed me to appeal the trial court's decision."
And one of the other answers includes the mis-spelled word
"DEFINATELY" in caps. This is one of the most frequently mis-spelled words I see on message boards. "Finite" means end, limit, measurable, etc. (Contrast with "infinite".) "Definite" means, essentially, having discernible endpoints, capable of measurement, etc. Simply remembering "finite" gives access to two other words: infinite and definite.
"Finish" is also from the same word root as "finite". So, remember "finish", and you've got "finish, finite, infinite, and definite." It's not that much effort!

It's a noun.
It is something made by the lawyer.
A further clue is that it is preceded by the definite article.
