To the best of my knowledge, this is the judge who originally ruled that there shouldn't be a change of venue, and then Bush appealed that ruling. When Bush appealed the ruling, this same judge issued a stay, saying that Schiavo's suit shouldn't go forward until the appeals court ruled.

Then Schiavo's lawyer appealed that ruling, saying that the stay was denying due process. So it would appear that, yes, Bush can appeal the decision not to grant a stay - that the same appeals court that will decide venue could decide whether there should be a stay.

Actually, I think when Bush appealed, there was an AUTOMATIC stay, then this judge ruled to lift the automatic stay.
