Department of Education v. California
Decided April 4, 2025. The Court ruled per curiam, an unsigned opinion of the Court.
Docket 24A910 · 604 U.S. 650 (2025) · Cited 18 times
Holding
The District Court’s order preventing the termination of education-related grants is construed as an appealable preliminary injunction. Because the Government is likely to succeed in showing that the District Court lacked jurisdiction under the Administrative Procedure Act to order monetary payments, and upon consideration of the remaining stay factors, the Government’s application for a stay pending appeal is granted.
