What's being asked

Richard Rynn and others asked the Supreme Court for emergency help to wipe out orders in a dispute with UHS of Phoenix and others. The record does not explain what the dispute concerns; the orders came from Arizona's Court of Appeals, Division One.

What the Court did

The Court refused the emergency help and denied the application (turned down the request). The order does not decide who wins the underlying dispute. The Court did not publish how the justices voted.

The order does not say how any justice voted, as is usual on the emergency docket.
Half of 300 rulings on applications decided without a response came 8 to 28 days after filing, and the median was 14 days; this one was ruled on 189 days after filing.

What it means

The emergency ruling addresses only immediate relief, not who wins the dispute. The record names the Arizona Court of Appeals, Division One, but does not say what proceedings continue there. It lists no related Supreme Court case, and the Court has not set argument.
