“[I]f there is to be no appeal at all possible the system would be intolerable.”
Bowen, L.J., The Queen v. Justices of County of London, &c. (1893), L.R. 2Q.B. 492.
It happens all the time. A contentious lawsuit doesn’t settle. A judge rules on a series of motions and issues a ruling. A judge or jury makes findings of fact based on certain standards. There is a winner and a loser. The dispute is over, right?
All too often the trial court is merely round one. While there may be multiple paths to victory at the trial court level, on appeal litigants may be limited to one brief and a few minutes before a panel of judges to make their case for affirmance or reversal. Years of litigation and attorney fees hang in the balance on a decision by a panel of appellate judges.
