Emergency application
Manjeet K. Kang v. Nationstar Mortgage, LLC, dba Mr. Cooper
What did the Court do?
The Court denied the request on September 24, 2026: 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
Manjeet K. Kang and others, all private parties, ask the Supreme Court to cancel and temporarily pause the Ninth Circuit mandate. The mandate is the formal order putting the appeals court's decision into effect. The record does not explain their dispute with Nationstar Mortgage, which does business as Mr. Cooper.
What the Court did
Justice Kagan refused the requested emergency help, denying the application (turning it down). The order does not decide who wins the dispute, and the Court did not publish a vote.
What it means
This emergency ruling concerns only temporary relief and does not decide who wins the underlying dispute. The record names the Ninth Circuit but does not say what proceedings continue there. The docket lists no related Supreme Court case on the main question and no argument date.
