                Elizabeth Elting v. Philip R. Shawe, et al.
                Civil Action No. 10449-CB

 Dear Counsel:

       Pending before the court is the second motion for certification of an

 interlocutory appeal that Respondents have filed within the past thirty days. This

 time, Respondents seek to appeal two orders the court entered on November 1, 2019

 (the “Second Orders”) arising out of the same dispute that was the subject of a

 Memorandum Opinion (“Opinion”) and Order (the “First Order”) issued on October

 17, 2019.
In re TransPerfect Global, Inc., et al.
Civil Action Nos. 9700, 10449-CB
November 27, 2019

         On November 18, 2019, the court denied Respondents’ motion to certify an

interlocutory appeal of the Opinion and First Order (the “Interlocutory Order”). As

explained in the Interlocutory Order, “the risk of piecemeal appeals is manifest” in

this case.1 For this reason, the court expressed its view that an interlocutory appeal

of the Opinion and the First Order and/or of the Second Orders made no sense until

two other outstanding, directly-related matters had been adjudicated, namely “(i) the

amount of the Contempt Fee Award and (ii) the resolution of any objections

Respondents may make to the Fee Orders.”2 Thereafter, a single interlocutory

appeal of all those rulings could be taken together.

         The court’s calculus of the costs versus the benefits of an interlocutory appeal

remains the same now as it did in the Interlocutory Order. Accordingly, for the

reasons stated there, Respondents’ motion for certification of an interlocutory appeal

of the Second Orders is DENIED.

         IT IS SO ORDERED.

                                          Sincerely,

                                          /s/ Andre G. Bouchard
