Your statement is erroneous.  An appeal to the District Court would make
nothing binding on lower courts.  Both are inferior courts of records, refer
to Valentine v Eid.  Stare decisis does not exist between a District Court
and a Local Court.  Brief ratio is workload of District Court requires many
ex tempore decisions, not conducive to rationalised and researched
decisions.
