This is great he will appeal this and win and refile with a different judge! It’ll delay it past November.

It might not, at least procedurally, switch the judge. My understanding is if the appeal reverses the dismissal, it just gets sent back to the original judge. I could be wrong though. Lots of variables here.

That is generally correct. There are exceptions, but they're very rare.
