Judge Walker has given his reasons for why he doesn't think the people who want to appeal have standing to appeal (and it is a good argument, though I am not devoid of confirmation bias since I like the outcome that results). But ultimately he doesn't get to make that decision, if the 9th Circuit or Supreme Court disagrees then the pro-8 people will be able to appeal. Otherwise it is left to the State of California to initiate the appeal and Brown and Schwarzenegger have said they don't plan to.
I assume that the deadline to appeal is before the next governor/AG will be in office and therefore if those went Republican they wouldn't have the option to appeal.
