Judge McMahon Skeptical of Urgency of Preliminary Injunction Motion With “Leisurely” Briefing Schedule

By Charles Michael on August 9, 2013

Earlier this week, Judge McMahon endorsed an unopposed motion allowing an extension of time relating to a pending preliminary injunction motion.  (We covered the underlying case here.)  Her written endorsement does not bode well for the motion:

I am happy to grant the motion. You should know however, that belated injunction motions and leisurely briefing schedules do not suggest to me the urgency required for a preliminary injunctive relief. But you have agreed to this — and now I will not shorten the time table you have set.

Other memorable endorsements from Judge McMahon are here, here, here, here, here and here.
