Yet his right to appeal is a right that he (and all convicted) have. The likelihood of success doesn't determine whether or not he can file for it.

I think what TillE was talking about wasn't the likelihood of a successful appeal, but whether or not he'll stay in prison until the appeal is completed.

Perhaps, but I just can't see that as written.

Realistic grounds for appeal aren't required to file an appeal.

They are required to stay out of custody while that appeal is pending, though.
