So the application in this case, which is filed by the government, and it was seeking a stay of lower court decisions that had a district court decision that had barred the president from.
calling out the National Guard in Chicago.
The government was seeking to stay that decision.
Application seeking that relief was filed October 17th of last year.
And then, you know, it becomes fully briefed.
Later in the month of October, the court asked for supplemental relief.
to be filed sort of by mid-November.
That supplemental briefing was completed November 17th.
And then more than a month later, we finally get the decision from the court.
This is a decision refusing to stay.
So it's a decision against the government, refusing to stay, lower court decision, barring
the president from calling out the National Guard.
And so in that situation, you can sort of see in retrospect why the court wasn't feeling any need to rush, right?
Because the court's order was not going to change anything.
The court was just going to say-
The thing that's in place can stay in place.
And importantly, the court had denied that administrative stay while this was pending.
But I mean, it is a good example of why, of the, of the argument that, that we've discussed, why emergency docket is perhaps not the right name.
