L.A.R. 8.1: Motion for Stay in Court of Appeals

A motion for a stay of a judgment or order of a district court or a decision of the United States Tax Court pending appeal, or for an order suspending, modifying, restoring or granting an injunction during the pendency of an appeal must include a copy of any relevant judgment, decision, or order of the district court or the decision of the United States Tax Court and any accompanying opinion. Failure to do so is a ground for dismissal of the motion.

This rule was revised in 1995 to apply to decisions of the United States Tax Court as well as the judgments and orders of the United States district court. Otherwise, no substantive change from prior Court Rules 11.2 or 11.4 is intended. The rule was amended to delete references to a supersedeas bond, because approval of a supersedeas bond must be sought in the district court under FRAP 8 (a)(1)(B).
