If he sought to appeal the final ruling I'd agree, but the specific wording of the Notice of Appeal is that they're looking to appeal the ruling signed on October 4th and "(and all orders granting fees, costs or sanctions thereafter)". Because it's worded to appeal the interim/non-final ruling, Ty can't argue that he's intending to appeal just the final ruling.
The fees and costs that can be granted on a case that may get overturned on appeal. I would consider it logical that when you appeal, you also automatically appeal these. Since this is tied to the damages of the case you are appealing. Therefore, since the two things are tied together, they also automatically is a part of, or is appealed when they decide to do so.
I wouldn't characterize this as a barrage, it's just two notices and seems rather routine to me. Litigation generates lots of paperwork, and it's not like he's filing a hundred different motions.
Again though, there's no attorney-client privilege there. There might be a work-product argument he can make on some documents insofar as they capture his thought processes, but work-product is a qualified immunity and can be defeated upon a showing of sufficient need. I don't know how Texas courts evaluates that.
From a law point of view this is not a barrage perhaps. However for someone who is not used to the law, and a normal ordinary person like Slatosch, 4 papers in 3 days is a lot when you know they concern you. There has been 7 ,alltogether, 8 if you count BHBH's motion to quash, in the past 3 days conerning him or people he knows or been in touch with. That can come off as excessive and a bit much. Add in the emails, and phone calls he been throwing at him since the 22-23rd of Oct. through to the 28th.
We have seen Lemwah desperately clawing for Ty's privileged information for a while now. Either in form of attorney client privileged information, but moreso his work-product items. I do believe he is trying to get to that through a seemingly NONPARTY source, and use that as a way to weasel his way into that info, even if the pertinent information that he want would fall under either of these two categories.
I dunno dude, this doesn't feel rabid or frantic to me. Lawyers generate lots of documents. It's the nature of the game. It doesn't read to me nearly as badly as Mike Flynn's arguments in his criminal case have been reading since he hired Powell.
I haven't followed that case. On occasion I have looked into other cases and they appear to have documents for just about everything and anything. It is more about the content and intensity. He is accusing someone of Perjury before even having spoken to him. He's trying to Subpoena Ty Beard for, reasons. He's acting more like a madman clawing cause he's desperate for something, rather than a normal being. Then again, I suppose we can ask us the question: are lawyers/attorneys normal people?
After all, Ron has the same text and phone-records as Slatosch will have. And e-mail records if he decided to follow the 'do not delete evidence' thing they were put under. The stay of Discovery was entirely their own fault, and when they decide to go full out like this, it just looks bad.
The fact that Ron did a lot of 'I do not recall' and shaky maybe eehhs under deposition is more telling of him as a reliable witness rather than slatosch. So perhaps his only chance at making Ron look like reliable source after 4 hours of 'I do not recall' and SHEEPDOG, and lying under oath (never been in trouble with the law, lolyouhavesheepdog), perjury accusations and a hasty time-limit to force/most likely end in him not showing, could also be a way to throw doubt over Slatosch himself as witness. It is a kinda win win if he managed to get it through.
