ORDER entered by David J. Barron, Chief Appellate Judge; Gustavo A. Gelp , Jr., Appellate Judge and Julie Rikelman, Appellate Judge: This is an appeal, inter alia , from a preliminary injunction entered on June 12, 2026, in the District Court for the District of Massachusetts (the Order ). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. 1292(a)(1). Defendants-Appellants have filed in this court an Emergency Motion for Stay Pending Appeal or, Alternatively, an Administrative Stay (the " Motion "). Plaintiffs-Appellees have filed an Opposition. The Motion contains two requests; the sole request we address in this order is the request for an administrative stay. After careful review, we grant the request for an administrative stay of the Order in part. That is, the request for an immediate administrative stay of paragraphs 2, 3, and 4 of the Order is granted. Order at 62-63. This administrative stay leaves in place the District Court's stay of the Secretary's Order under 5 U.S.C. 705. See United States v. Texas , 144 S.Ct. 797, 798 (2024) (Barrett, J., concurring) (discussing considerations relevant to administrative stays). We intend to rule on the request for a stay pending appeal promptly.
