A:
Navigating the court system can be complex, especially with overlapping jurisdictions. When your SA petition was initially granted by the Court of Appeals but later denied for jurisdiction, it means they found the issue to be outside their authority. However, they are still reviewing the stay, which means they're considering whether to pause the enforcement of the lower court's decision while your case is being evaluated.
Now that you've petitioned the Supreme Court and it's pending acceptance, the Supreme Court will decide if they will hear your case. This period can be crucial because the stay you requested is still under review, even though the Court of Appeals denied jurisdiction. The Court of Appeals may still grant the stay to maintain the status quo until the Supreme Court decides whether to take your case.
While the process is ongoing, you should keep track of all communications from both courts. This ensures you don't miss any important deadlines or updates. Understanding each step helps you stay prepared for any developments.
