FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Honorable R. Brooke Jackson

ORDER
On June 1, 2012 this Court issued a written order granting a preliminary injunction on
terms set forth in the order. On June 5, 2012 the “Innovatis defendants” filed a notice of appeal
from that order. A number of motions have been filed in this Court since the granting of the
preliminary injunction’ [docket ##52, 53, 54, 55, 57, 67]. Included in this group is “Emergency
Motion of the Innovatis Defendants to Suspend Court’s June 1, 2012, Preliminary Injunction
Order Pending Appeal’’ [docket #53].
While the filing of an appeal generally divests the district court of jurisdiction, this Court
may suspend the injunction while an appeal from its order granting the injunction is pending.
Fed. R. Civ. P. 62(c). Further, a party must ordinarily move first in the district court for a stay of
1
a district court order pending appeal. Fed. R. App. P. 8(a)(1)(A). Assuming that this Court does
have jurisdiction to address the emergency motion to suspend its preliminary injunction order,
the motion is DENIED.
DATED this 19th day of June, 2012.
BY THE COURT:
