BREAKING: Disgraced Cardinal George Pell has lodged an appeal with the High Court for his conviction over historical child sex offences. 9News

Any verdict from the high court will be final and not subject to appeal.

If an appeal is accepted by the high court, the court may quash the decision of the Court of Appeal, or uphold it, or uphold only parts of it. The 78-year-old cardinal, who was once an adviser to Pope Francis and a member of the Vatican's inner-sanctum, was sentenced to six years in prison in March for orally raping a 13-year-old choir boy and abusing another.

Wow this will send people mental.
