    I don't know what you mean by dropping it if you can't find a good lawyer. Have you started your own appeal? What Court and where?

    Have no idea why, they are merely people, and most family courts are done fairly informal compared to criminal trials.

    But yes you can drop it latter.
    The real issue is filing an appeal that will go though. You can't appeal just because you lost, there has to be reason that meets the courts rules for an appeal.
