Nantes not liable For Emiliano Sala's death.

The 400k penalty is payable immediately regardless of any appeal
An appeal to the Grand Court in Nantes is essentially a retrial rather than a reexamination of the first one

It would take roughly two years to be heard and would be a brand new trial in its entirety
So there’s nothing to be gained by an appeal in terms of delaying liability, just an unlikely roll of the dice hoping for a different outcome to arguments that have failed, with the only certainty of more costs at the end of it?

He’ll still probably do it.
