Riddle Me This (Or Is This A Set Condition 1?)

So I got into my office this afternoon after working from home for most of the day. And in my mail box I found something I had not seen in almost six years.

It was a notice of appeal on a case I thought was done and gone.

Motherfrakkers went and changed their mind on appeal. Now I have to tell the client we know why they are not accepting the rent.

How is it I cannot get a case to go to trial for the life of me but I can get one appealed? I'm starting to thing there is a hidden rule out there that I am violating.

Oh well, time to brush up on my appellate procedure.
