Appellate dockets

30 appeals arising from 22 of the 108 tracked docket records, across 5 reviewing courts, plus 2 whose reviewing court the record never names. An appeal is a second docket, in a second court, on the same underlying action — so these are not additional lawsuits and are not counted as such anywhere on this site.

What this index does and does not establish

Every row here is read from a trial-court record or an appellate docket header, not from a reading of the appellate court’s reasoning. 19 of 30 carry a disposition this project treats as verified; the rest record a docket number whose current status has not been checked, or an appeal the record establishes exists without giving its number. Those gaps are stated on each card rather than left blank.

Taking an appeal is a party’s filing, not a ruling — only an appellate court’s own disposition is a finding, and a disposition recorded here is a docket fact rather than reasoning unless the order itself was read. An appeal continues the action it arises from, so appeals are never counted as additional lawsuits: the case and originating-action counts published elsewhere on this site are unaffected by this section. Where a docket number or a current status is not recorded, that is a stated gap in the research, not a finding that none exists. See Methodology.

3:24-cv-01115 — Tufano v. Fenix Internet, LLC

Docketed December 17, 2024 · Dismissed for failure to timely prosecute, the appellant having failed to pay the required fee as directed. (July 23, 2025)

Captioned 'Frank Tufano v. Fenix Internet LLC'. The linkage is confirmed from the appellate docket's own header ('Appealed From: M.D. Pennsylvania (24-cv-01115)', trial judge Saporito) and an order/judgment date matching this case. Disposition verified 2026-09-10 from the district docket, M.D. Pa. 3:24-cv-01115 entry 22 (2025-07-23), which recites the Third Circuit's order verbatim: 'ORDER of USCA ORDERED that the above-captioned case is hereby dismissed for failure to timely prosecute insofar as appellant failed to pay the requisite fee as directed.' The fee had been at issue from the start: on 2025-01-03 the district court certified that the appeal was not taken in good faith and denied leave to proceed in forma pauperis on appeal (entry 19, Saporito, J.), and a second IFP motion followed on 2025-03-18. The Third Circuit's own docket is mirrored on CourtListener only through its case-opening entries of 2024-12-19 and shows no disposition.

The district docket records the disposition at entry 15 as a 'CERTIFIED ORDER of USCA in lieu of formal MANDATE as to 12 Notice of Appeal', with no free copy of the order available, so the form of the disposition is source-backed but the basis for the termination is not established.

2025-05632 — Tufano v. Alibaba

Notice of appeal March 10, 2026 · Docketed May 5, 2026 · Quashed sua sponte and dismissed. The Superior Court held the order appealed from was not final because the claims against Zhucheng Kangze Machinery Co. were never adjudicated, and separately dismissed the appeal for failure to pay the $91.25 filing fee. Reconsideration denied 2026-08-21. (July 10, 2026)

Notice of Appeal filed 2026-03-10, the day after the Order of 2026-03-09 (Nealon, J.) sustaining Alibaba Group (U.S.), Inc.'s preliminary objection for lack of personal jurisdiction; docketed in the Superior Court 2026-05-05. Verified 2026-09-10 against the Superior Court's own appeal docket sheet, whose DISPOSITION INFORMATION block records a final disposition of Quash Sua Sponte, per curiam, dated 2026-07-10, with the order's reasoning set out verbatim. The court first issued two orders, on 2026-06-05 and 2026-06-18 - one directing payment of the $91.25 fee or an IFP petition, one a rule to show cause why the appeal should not be quashed as taken from a non-final order. Tufano responded to the fee order on 2026-06-17 attaching a screenshot of a $202.91 card transaction with the Lackawanna County Clerk of Courts, which the court held 'does not correlate with the filing fee for this appeal', and responded untimely to the show-cause order on 2026-07-06 conceding that the claims against Zhucheng 'were never addressed by the lower court'. An Application for Reconsideration filed 2026-08-12 was denied 2026-08-21 for want of jurisdiction.

2025-05633 — Tufano v. Lackawanna County

Notice of appeal April 6, 2026 · Docketed May 5, 2026 · Quashed sua sponte and dismissed. The Superior Court held that an order denying recusal and an order denying a stay are interlocutory and not appealable, quashed the appeal after Tufano did not respond to its rule to show cause, and separately dismissed it for failure to pay the $91.25 filing fee. The rule to show cause had also raised, as a ground on which it directed him to show cause, that appellate jurisdiction over tort claims against a local agency lies exclusively in the Commonwealth Court under 42 Pa.C.S.A. 762(a)(7); the court did not rest its disposition on that ground. Reconsideration denied 2026-08-21. (July 10, 2026)

An interlocutory appeal from the Order of 2026-04-02 (James A. Gibbons, P.J.) denying a stay and denying recusal of the trial judge - not from a final judgment. Notice of Appeal filed 2026-04-06; docketed in the Superior Court 2026-05-05. Verified 2026-09-10 against the Superior Court's own appeal docket sheet, whose DISPOSITION INFORMATION block records a final disposition of Quash Sua Sponte, per curiam, dated 2026-07-10, with the order's reasoning set out verbatim. The rule to show cause of 2026-06-05 raised two grounds - that the appeal belonged in the Commonwealth Court because the complaint pleaded fraud and civil conspiracy against Lackawanna County, a local agency, and that an order denying recusal or a stay is not appealable - and Tufano did not respond to it. A separate order of the same date directed payment of the $91.25 fee; his 2026-06-17 response attached a $202.91 Lackawanna County card transaction the court held did not correlate with this appeal's fee. An Application for Reconsideration filed 2026-08-12 was denied 2026-08-21 for want of jurisdiction. The underlying Board of Assessment action continues in the trial court.

Notice of appeal August 25, 2026

A third Ninth Circuit appeal in this action, recorded from the C.D. Cal. docket's own entries: entry 156 (2026-08-25), 'Appeal to 9th Circuit Court of Appeals', and entry 158 (2026-08-28), 'USCA Notification of Case Number'. Re-checked 2026-09-10 by reading the complete 141-entry C.D. Cal. docket: both entries are titles only and neither names the appellate docket number, and a party sweep of the Ninth Circuit on CourtListener returns only No. 25-4324 for this litigation. The number therefore remains unrecovered and must not be guessed. The two earlier appeals in this action, Nos. 25-4324 and 25-7397, each ran the same sequence - notice, case-number notification, memorandum disposition, mandate - in roughly eleven and eight weeks respectively, so a disposition on this one would be expected on the C.D.

The last of three appeals from this trial-court case, all dismissed. Taken from the notice of appeal of 2026-02-05, filed after the denial of reconsideration on 2026-01-14. A second notice of appeal was filed 2026-02-17 and the record does not say what became of it -- the Second Appellate District returns only these three appeals for this party.

7:20-cv-09346 — Saladino, MD v. Frank Tufano

Re-checked 2026-09-10. The Second Circuit's order of 2025-08-27 was read in full from the copy filed on the district docket, S.D.N.Y. 7:20-cv-09346 entry 112: it records that Tufano appealed from a magistrate judge order of 2025-08-21, states that the order 'appears to be non-appealable' under 28 U.S.C. 1291, 1292 and 636(b)(1), (c)(1), advises that objections to the district judge were the proper route, and directs him to file a letter by 2025-09-10 either setting out the basis for appellate jurisdiction or withdrawing the appeal, failing which the appeal would be referred to a panel. What followed is not established: the district docket carries a 'USCA Mandate' entry at 120 (2026-01-22) whose document is not in RECAP and whose docket number the entry does not name, and the Second Circuit maintains no docket mirrored on CourtListener for this litigation - a party sweep of that court returns four unrelated cases. On timing, No. 25-2065 was the only appeal outstanding when that mandate issued, but the free record does not say so, and this row is left unverified rather than inferred.

7:20-cv-09346 — Saladino, MD v. Frank Tufano

The lead docket of two consolidated appeals - No. 26-302 (L) and No. 26-1487 (Con). Verified 2026-09-10 from two Second Circuit orders read in full as filed on the district docket. The first, entry 129, entered 2026-04-10 by Merriam, Circuit Judge, referred Tufano's motion for a stay of the district court proceedings to a motions panel and denied an administrative stay in the meantime. The second, entry 139, entered 2026-08-12 by Bianco, Menashi and Kahn, Circuit Judges, denied his motion to stay the district court judgment underlying the consolidated appeals, citing Nken v. Holder, 556 U.S. 418, 434-35 (2009), and stated that 'The appeals will continue in the ordinary course' - which establishes both appeals as live as of that date. A stay has now been denied three times on the same judgment: by the district court on 2026-06-11 and by the Second Circuit on 2026-04-10 and 2026-08-12.

7:20-cv-09346 — Saladino, MD v. Frank Tufano

Consolidated with No. 26-302 (L) as the '(Con)' member. Verified 2026-09-10 from the Second Circuit's order of 2026-08-12 by Bianco, Menashi and Kahn, Circuit Judges, read in full as filed on the district docket at entry 139, which is captioned '26-302 (L), 26-1487 (Con)', denies the motion to stay the district court judgment underlying 'these consolidated appeals', and states that 'The appeals will continue in the ordinary course'. The district docket carries six notices of appeal in all, at entries 69, 95, 109, 122, 132 and 136; which of the later ones opened No. 26-1487 is not established from the free record.

2025-01448 — Tufano v. PPL Electric Utilities

Notice of appeal April 21, 2025

A Notice of Appeal and an Amended Notice of Appeal followed the Order of 2025-04-21 (Powell, J.) granting both defendants' unanswered preliminary objections. Both are held in the project's document archive: the Notice of Appeal is filed-stamped 2025-04-21 and the Amended Notice of Appeal 2025-04-22. Tufano then settled with Frontier alone for $4,500 and jointly petitioned for a consent decree dismissing the Frontier claims; PPL Electric Utilities was not part of that settlement. No appellate court, docket number or disposition appears in the record.

2025-00706 — Tufano v. Motorworld

Notice of appeal January 22, 2026

Recorded from the trial-court record only. The Order of 2026-01-07 (Powell, J.) dismissed the complaint with prejudice on the Motorworld defendants' preliminary objections, and a pro se Notice of Appeal was filed 2026-01-22 arguing that the objections were never received. Neither the appellate court nor an appellate docket number appears anywhere in the record, and no appellate docket has been queried; "appeal pending" is the trial-court record's own description as of 2026-08-17.
