I don;t understand your premise that there was no service and thus no case. If this Orly person is appealing the case then a decision has been made. Courts don’t make decisions on cases that do not exist. It seems in the current matter that a Judge made a written decision and listed reasons. If the service was deficient, then it would have been dismissed without comment. I doubt the court opened the appeal so “proper service” could be determined.

I don’t think this Orly has a chance in hell. She seems ill prepared and doesn’t know how to file basic paperwork. I doubt her actual appeal will be arguing service if the case never started.

Yes, a case was started (i.e., Orly filed one), but she never succeeded in serving any of the defendants properly. That was one of the reasons the judge gave in his written decision for dismissing the case. There were other reasons as well, but because there was no valid service the appeal has zero chance of succeeding.
