Hollingsworth v. Perry, No. 09A648

In defendant-intervenors' application for a stay of an order of the district court in the California Proposition 8 trial permitting the trial to be broadcast live via streaming audio and video to a number of federal courthouses around the country, the stay is granted where the district court failed to give appropriate public notice and an opportunity for comment before modifying a local rule to permit the broadcast, as required by 28 U.S.C. section 2071(b).
