Posture:
Notice of appeal — temporary order and merits litigation continued

The Justice Department filed a notice of appeal to the First Circuit after the district court entered a 14-day temporary restraining order against implementation of the Postal Service rule. Filing the appeal did not stay or reverse the temporary order, and neither that notice nor the Supreme Court's earlier standing decision resolved the restrictions' legality.
