No appellate brief is likely to be filed.

It is just grandstanding. There are no grounds for appeal - the tria judge threw out the case because the plaintiff had no standing and an appellate court cannot create standing where it doesn't exist.

Didn't Georgia count, recount, are re-recounting, and certified?

Oh I see. They're still trying to throw out all the absentee ballots.
