You can change your lawyer during an appellate proceeding. You may have to get the judge's approval, however. If you are appealing a criminal case and have a public defender, the only realistic way to get a new attorney is to hire one. Many lawyers are good at appeals cases and are retained for just this purpose.

What do you need to do to get a stay of a sentence while waiting for appeal?

To obtain a stay of a sentence while waiting for an appeal, you typically need to file a motion with the court requesting the stay. This motion should state the grounds for the appeal and provide reasons why a stay is necessary, such as the risk of irreparable harm if the sentence is enforced during the appeal process. The court will then review the motion and make a decision on whether to grant the stay.

If there is good cause to permit the change, the party may request that his/her attorney be discharged and a new one retained.

My sisters murderer has applied for an appeal and I want to know if it is denied can he keep applying for appeals?

I'm no lawyer. I do, however, know that if you have a grievance against the legal system you (or anybody) can apply to the courts for an appeal. Convicted murders and victims can both appeal to the Courts about their sentences. He and you can appeal for many years.
