IIRC appeals in jury cases like this have a very low success rate, so not sure she wants to blow more money on lawyers and only increase her expenses...
I think you are correct...I don't think that an appeal can win. Here is
why:How, then, did Ventura prevail in court against Kyle? We can blame the judge and the jury and call the verdict a travesty, yet there is one element of Kyle’s case any newspaper editor would immediately spot as a vulnerability: He asserted private knowledge.
(Go to the link and read the whole thing)
The jury was told 1) what the evidence was and then 2) what the law was. They had these things explained to them in excruciating detail by douche bag's lawyers. They looked at the judge and he nodded and said, "Yes, that's the way it is." They went into the jury room and then came out with, unfortunately, the correct verdict given our legal system.
Justice is not always the same as fairness. Ventura is a douche for proceeding with this lawsuit against a widow and her child. He is also a douche for a great number of other reasons. But, according to the law, he is actually in the right in this instance. It isn't fair but it is justice.
Perhaps he will get prostate cancer very soon. Or Alzheimers. That would be justice of a different sort.
