nonappealable
No higher court
Nonappealable describes a decision or ruling that cannot be challenged through an appeals process.
The term appears most often in legal contexts: The arbitrator's decision is final and nonappealable.
A nonappealable judgment ends the matter—there's no higher authority to review it.
