Huh?

You, the BU, calls BR out for the passing and R1 takes off to 2B prior to the ball being touched and caught by F8.
F8 returns ball to F6 who immediately throws the ball to F3 for a live ball appeal of R1 leaving early.
As the BU, what is your response to the appeal?

One has no bearing on the other. There are two infractions here. The batter/runner is out when he passes the runner. The runners is still required to properly run the bases. Tagging up correctly is still required.
