False. R911:
When an appeal case is initiated, the prior question is
suspended, and remains so until the question on disposition in
the appeal case is judged.
So when the appeal is initiated, the question on equation is suspended.
R2169:
When an applicable question on equation in an equity case has a
judgement, and has had that judgement continuously for the past
week (or all parties to the contract have approved that
judgement), the judgement is in effect as a binding agreement
between the parties.
So when the question on equation is suspended, the prior judgement ceases
to be in effect as a binding agreement. (Or, at least, this clause is
no longer causing it to be in effect.) R911:
* REASSIGN, appropriate if there is serious doubt about the
appropriateness of the prior judgement; the judge of the prior
case (if any) is recused, and the prior question is rendered
open again
(and similar language for REMAND). Rendering the question open again
does not reinstate the prior judgement. Per R2158:
At any time, each judicial question is either open (default),
suspended, or has exactly one judgement. This is a persistent
status that changes only according to the rules.
Modularity, eh. Fewer bugs, but people will keep perceiving more.
