"Before: CANBY and FRIEDLAND, Circuit Judge s.The court has
received appellants emergency motion (Docket Entry No. 14).
Appellants request for an immediate administrative stay
pending full consideration of the emergency motion
for a stay pending appeal is denied. Appellees opposition
to the emergency motion is due Sunday, February 5, 2017
at 11:59 p.m. PST. Appellants reply in support of the
emergency motion is due Monday, February 6, 2017 at 3:00
p.m. PST."
As we see, the Emergency Motion has not started before the 9th Prima Donnas. Sometime today they'll get it from the DOJ.
You are missing the point. The 9th Cir panel could have issued a stay of the lower court ruling pending a full hearing on the merits. The gravitation pull of the law on issues of national interest and immigration is on the president’s side.

Good. Now the government lawyers will have a chance to drop this “overbroad” bullcrap and argue the ACTUAL STATUTE that gives the President the sole power to regulate entry into the country. Jay Sekulow on Hannity had it right last night...the JD lawyers were arguing like they wanted to lose this case. Remove them and put Sekulow in charge.
