Emergency application
Court power after judgment expires
Avon Capital, LLC, a Wyoming Limited Liability Company v. Universitas Education, LLC
What did the Court do?
The Court denied the request on August 29, 2025: the lower court's ruling stays in effect while the appeal continues.
Emergency rulings are temporary and do not decide the underlying case.
What's being asked
Avon Capital, a Wyoming company, asks the Court to temporarily pause an August 5 order directing money to be disbursed. Avon says the dispute traces to a $6.7 million New York judgment against a separate Connecticut company. It says Universitas Education registered that judgment in Oklahoma, where it became the basis for a judgment against Avon.
What the Court did
Justice Gorsuch refused Avon Capital's request for a temporary pause and denied its application (formally refused it). The docket does not report how the justices voted; the denial does not decide who wins the underlying case.
What it means
This ruling concerns only the requested temporary pause; it does not decide the underlying dispute. The Tenth Circuit's ruling remains in place, and the docket lists no related merits case or argument date.
