Last week it was reported, that Connolly was to accept the ban, but reports of the appeal means the story could continue for the coming weeks.
A 12-week ban meant the Dublin forward would not be allowed play in any games for club or county, and would not be seen in a Dublin jersey until the All-Ireland semi-finals, should the reigning champions have reached that stage.
The Irish News have reported that the Central Hearings Committee will hear his appeal in the coming days.
