Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

Appeal of right is automatically granted and are limited.
Discretionary appeal occurs when the appellate court decides whether or not they want to grant a hearing. They can be filed several times.
Trial de novo actually means new trial and not simply reviewed and they are rare.
Interlocutory appeals are filed prior to adjudication and will only succeed if they are important and unrelated to the cause of action.
