The 9th Circuit on Wednesday granted the government's emergency motion for a temporary stay of a worldwide injunction barring enforcement of "don't ask, don't tell," the military's ban on openly gay service members. The only reason the appeals court gave for its action was "to provide this court with an opportunity to consider fully the issues presented." The three-judge panel gave the plaintiff in the underlying case until Oct. 25 to oppose the government's broader request for a stay of the injunction pending its appeal.
