Legal matters can move quickly, sometimes requiring immediate action to prevent irreversible harm. In such cases, filing for an emergency stay may be the best option. An emergency stay halts the enforcement of a court order or legal action while an appeal is pending.
At Ciyou & Associates, P.C., our attorneys are experienced in obtaining emergency stays and helping clients maintain the status quo until their cases are fully resolved in court.
An emergency stay is a legal order issued by a court that temporarily suspends the enforcement of a ruling or action, an avenue often pursued when a party believes that immediate harm would result if the lower court's decision were allowed to take effect while an appeal is filed.
Typically granted temporarily, emergency stays allow the appellate court time to review the matter more thoroughly before making a final decision.
