Summary: written with AI from the case record.
What it's about
The petition focused on whether the effect of a district court’s order—not just its wording—could permit an immediate appeal.
Question presented
Whether a court of appeals may dismiss, for lack of appellate jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1), an appeal from a district court order whose practical effect is to refuse preliminary injunctive relief indefinitely, without applying the practical-effect standard of Carson and A.A.R.P.
