“In Mellon Bank Corp. v. First Union Real Est. Equity & Mortgage Inv. , 951 F.2d 1399 (3 Cir.1991), the court found that a [Fed.R.Civ.P.] 11 motion for sanctions filed nearly 2 ½ years after a suit was filed in federal court was untimely. The court also found that the motion was not filed in the trial court before the entry of a final judgment as required by supervisory rule of the U.S. Court of Appeals, 3d Circuit. In the instant suit there is no such court rule but the wisdom and purpose of the rule seems eviden[t] to this court. A motion to sanction filed in the trial court following completion of the trial and the appeal process raises at least two problematic issues. First, what authority does the trial court have to act after the jurisdiction of the trial court is divested by appeal? And secondly, and more relevant to the instant exception, can the purposes of Article 863 be effectively served after the underlying litigation is over?[ ] The imposition of sanctions usually serves two main purposes: deterrence and compensation; encompassed within those objectives are the related subsidiary goals of punishing litigation abuse and facilitating case management. Navarro-Ayala v. Nunez , 968 F.2d 1421 (1st Cir.1992).”
