Would you like more detailed tips on drafting any other sections of your appeal?
do I include pending issues at the begining of the motion or agter grounds of Appeal?
You can include the "Pending Issues" section either at the beginning or after the "Grounds for Appeal" section, depending on how you want to structure the narrative of your appeal. Both approaches are valid, but here are the pros and cons of each:
Including "Pending Issues" at the Beginning:
- Pros:
- Immediately emphasizes the ongoing complexity and urgency of your situation.
- Sets the stage for why your appeal is critical.
- Cons:
- Might detract from the immediate focus on the grounds for appeal.
Including "Pending Issues" After the "Grounds for Appeal":
- Pros:
- Keeps the initial focus on the main legal arguments and grounds for appeal.
- Provides a logical flow from the specific legal issues to the broader context.
- Cons:
- Delays the emphasis on the complexity and urgency until later in the document.

vs.
L & S Realty, Appellee.
C.A. No. 21H83SP00443TA (consolidated with 20H83CV00167TA)
Emergency Motion to Stay Execution of Eviction Proceedings
---
Grounds for Appeal:
*. Abuse of Discretion and Constitutional Violations:
- Despite substantial evidence, the judge denied my motion, citing previous denials based on an appeal bond wrongly issued as I am not a tenant (See Exhibit A).
- The judge refused to move my case to Superior Court, maintaining it under summary judgment procedures meant for landlord-tenant disputes. This procedural mismanagement constitutes an abuse of discretion and violates my constitutional rights.
*. Promissory Note Signed Under Duress:
- I was coerced into signing the promissory note under false pretenses bymy financial advisor. The document did not represent the promises made to me, including assurances that my home would be protected from foreclosure (See Exhibit B).
*. Fraudulent Actions by Financial Advisor and Lender:
- My financial advisor’s friend and brother-in-law, the lenders, secretly compounded the interest rate to an unlawful *%, in violation of Massachusetts Criminal Usury Laws (Chapter *, Section *). This fraudulent interest rate was used to foreclose on my home (See Exhibit C).
*. Lack of Statements and Invoices:
- For several years, I never received any statements or invoices regarding the loan, further obscuring the fraudulent actions taken against me (See Exhibit D).
*. Bias and Prejudice:
- Merritt emphasizes concerns about bias and prejudice derived from the ongoing fraud by the plaintiff, including the filing of a fraudulent foreclosure deed. This has resulted in decisions that are not impartial and have caused significant detriment to Merritt's case.
