Microsoft's Emergency Motion for a Stay Repeats Arguments Already Rejected by
District Court

,----[ Quote ]
| In Microsoft's Emergency Motion for a Stay of Injunction [PDF], it argues
| that it would be irreparably harmed without a stay, that it's in the public
| interest to avoid disruption to its business and its partners' businesses,
| and that while they expect to win on appeal, they'd then be out all the
| expense of implementing the injunction. However, they already asked the judge
| in the District Court for a stay on those exact grounds and were denied.
