The word appealed is based on the verb to appeal, which has two distinct uses, to plead or to be attractive.

Criminal Justice

Appealed means that a case was referred to a higher court for review. A person or group may similarly have appealed, or made a plea or petition, to some authority.

Attractive or Desirable

Appealed means that a person, thing, or activity had some attraction, e.g. The thought of an early promotion has always appealed to ambitious junior executives.
