Probably not many. The guy has a bad rep amongst lawyers already apparently. And a really bad lawyer I'm guessing could make things worse as more evidence is uncovered if appealing.

From my understanding, even if he appeals, the money still needs to be put aside and isn't accessible. So it's actually good if he appeals, because it will cost him and crap right wing Lawyers more money

Appealing at the court won't keep him out of jail either
