Stays and Concurrent Litigation in Trial and Appellate Courts


When is trial-court activity automatically stayed pending an appeal, and when is a stay discretionary? How can appellate counsel obtain a writ when the trial court refused to enter a stay? When is the trial court rendered functus officio based on appellate proceedings? When does it take more than certification of an interlocutory order to ensure appellate jurisdiction?

Listen as this panel tackles these questions and more.
