Probate cases are not simple winner-take-all trials, where a judge or jury determines whether someone is liable for something and awards damages.\u00a0 Instead, probate matters tend to go on for extended periods of time, with trial courts issuing various rulings and judgments.\u00a0 But only some orders can be appealed, depending, in part, on whether (i) the order is styled as a “judgment,” (2) whether the judicial labors on the matters are concluded, and (3) whether the type of order is on a list of orders in the Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure that can be immediately appealed.\u00a0 Failure to appeal when an appeal is allowed may result in an inability to appeal the matter later.\u00a0 As a consequence, when an order contains a mix of appealable and unappealable rulings, the best course of action is to appeal the whole order and let the appellate court sort out what is presently appealable.<\/p>\n
