- dismissing appeal and endorsing the bankruptcy court's conclusion that the aggrieved party's failure to immediately seek a stay was \deliberate\
- finding support for equitable mootness where third-parties had made investments that could not “be protected in the event of a reversal of the Confirmation Order”
- “the absence of a stay does not compel a finding of mootness in all cases.”
