Again, your question was answered directly by at least three people. I don't know why the attorney gave you an incorrect answer, but he did.

Maybe you posed the question incorrectly, because an ex parte communiciation IS ethically and legally wrong. It could be grounds for a mistrial for a judge to talk to either party in a suit outside the court and without the presence of counsel. But there is nothing wrong if one party in the suit files a motion for such a communication. Nor would it be wrong for the judge to approve the motion as long as a record is made of the communication and that record be made available if applicable.

As for filing an appeal. Yes you are correct anyone can file an appeal. But unless you have a legal basis for the appeal (and that legal basis would have to be some some procedural error, not just disagreeing with the verdict), the appeals court will decline to even hear it.

P.S. I will warn you once again. This site doesn't not allow personal attacks. If you continue them you won't have to worry about whether you want to come back here for help since you won't be allowed to.

I will agree with scott, I have deleted several abusive posts.

This is the problem, you are getting some good advice based upon the small amount of info you are given.

For every most of the time there are at times exceptions of course, In the ends Judges are not always right, but their verdicts are in the end, what has to be lived by and enforced.

Further posts that do not address merely the facts at hand, will be deleted.
