THOMAS J. VILSACK, et al., Defendants. / Plaintiffs filed a proposed preliminary injunction providing that the stecklings be destroyed and that SESVanderHave USA, Inc., who is not a party and has not appeared in this matter, be ordered directly to comply with the Court's injunction. First, in these proceedings, Plaintiffs appear to have asked the Court to have the stecklings removed from the ground. To the extent Plaintiffs now seek to have the Court order that the stecklings be destroyed, Plaintiffs are directed to show specifically where in the record they made clear that their requested injunction included the destruction of the stecklings. Second, Plaintiffs are directed to provide authority demonstrating that this Court has the power to order SESVanderHave USA, Inc. directly to take action. If there is no authority on point, Plaintiffs shall explain how this injunction should be enforced with respect to the stecklings planted under SESVanderHave USA, Inc.'s permit. Finally, due to the notice of appeal already filed in this matter, it is not clear that the Court retains jurisdiction to take any further action unless and until the Ninth ORDER REQUIRING SUPPLEMENTAL EXPLANATION No. C 10-04038 JSW United States District Court 11 For the Northern District of California 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 Dockets.Justia.com 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Circuit rules on the appeal.
