Exactly…seems like Kipping only filed appeal try to skip out on paying court costs to VPLM & delay further by filing counter motion for stay pending appeal…but the Judge declined.

Here’s the minutes from the 3/15/22 hearing in Nevada. Keep in mind, Smith is Kipping’s attorney and VPLM is the Defendant in this case.
