I believe the intervenors can appeal.

What legal theory would preclude appeal by the intervenors as aggrieved parties? It is always an aggrieved party (e.g. one whose claim has been "torpedoed" or who simply loses at trial based on what is asserted to be an erroneous ruling) who has the right to appeal. Where are you coming from on this?

McCalley issued an Interlocutory Judgement, meaning that she was approving the settlement between the Plaintiff's and Defendant's pending the resolution of an issue by the Appellate Court.

In my opinion, that issue is related to something she said in her Court more than once... that she did not feel she had the authority to remove the rights of some (us, the 87% crying bullsheet).

If the Appellate Court concludes that the minority 13% cannot take the rights away from the majority 87%, this settlement goes away and we go to Trial. If the Appellate Court concludes that our rights can be ignored, as morally appalling as that conclusion would be, then we are screwed and we are left with slim hope for a fair auction.

We're hanging by a thread, but IMO there *is* still a thread.
