PART AND DENIED IN PART. We GRANT this request insofar as the order issued by

$119,658.22 upon the issuance of a stay and pending our review of this issue, and we

direct her to proceed in accordance with this suggestion. We DENY the requested stay

to the extent that appellant’s request for a stay encompasses post-judgment discovery.

         The Court requests that appellees, AYPCO Construction II, L.L.C. and Jorge Luis

Munoz, file a response to the motion for review of supersedeas amount within ten days

from the date of this order. Appellant’s motion for review of supersedeas amount will be

CARRIED WITH THE CASE pending review of the response and further order of the

Court.

         IT IS SO ORDERED.
