139 S. Ct. 1, 201 L. Ed. 2d 1112

UNITED STATES, et al., Applicants
v.
U.S. DISTRICT COURT FOR DISTRICT OF OREGON.

No. 18A65.

Supreme Court of the United States

July 30, 2018.

The application for stay presented to Justice Kennedy and by him referred to the Court is denied.

The Government's request for relief is premature and is denied without prejudice. The breadth of respondents' claims is striking, however, and the justiciability of those claims presents substantial grounds for difference of opinion. The District Court should take these concerns into account in assessing the burdens of discovery and trial, as well as the desirability of a prompt ruling on the Government's pending dispositive motions.
