Appeals are not automatic. Another judge has to decide whether you have standing to appeal - you can't just say "don't like the result, redo!"


Right, there needs to be procedural grounds for appeal, and this case is entirely about the judge violating procedural rules by delegating away their judgement. It's a perfect example of a case for an appeals court.


Doesn't seem that way for people with money though.


Yes, and? Lawsuits aren't automatic and you can't just say "don't like the result, redo!" in them either.
