Filed Closed 111 days after filing

What's being asked

The federal government asks the Supreme Court to temporarily pause a U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia order postponing agency action. Miot and four others brought the case. The record does not say what agency action the order postponed.

What the Court did

The Court refused the requested pause and denied the application as moot (no longer a live dispute). It closed the application without a ruling on the request itself. The Court did not publish how the justices voted.

What it means

This order only closes the emergency request; it does not decide who wins the underlying case. The docket says the Court separately agreed to hear two consolidated cases and scheduled oral argument for the second week of April 2026. The record does not say what continues in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia or the D.C. Circuit.
