re: #171 KGxvi

Ok, just looked it up, looks like the moving party needs to establish four things:

In re Power Recovery Sys., Inc., 950 F.2d 798, 804 n. 31 (1st Cir. 1991)

Strong likelihood of winning on the merits? I think the lower court just got done effectively stating this case has no merit.

Irreparable harm to the party? I don’t think “damage to Donny’s ego” counts.

And the public interest is in transparency, not in protecting politicians from their own dirty laundry.
