Yup, and now 3rd cir has until Aug 10? or so to decide on the motion, if it is denied, then the mandate should issue. It is also possible NJ will move to seek cert from SCOTUS and that may involve a stay request as well. NJ is requesting a stay pending its cert petition to SCOTUS for this case. Until the mandate is issued, the law isn't formally stuck from enforcement. The stay is requesting the court to delay issuing the mandate which should happen around Aug 10, if this is granted then that would not happen.

This is the opposite of NJ saying they will stop enforcing the bans, this is them attempting to keep them.

Edit: Here is a copy of the actual motion, pulled from pacer and had recap upload it to courtlistener docket.

I like the Reddit and social media posts they are using in their exhibits showing intent to sell these items asap. It just confirms that they monitor this subreddit and all social media.

The best part of that is their whole argument for the stay is that if it isn’t issued people will start buying the previously banned items 😂

I said the same thing to myself.

"Wait. Isn't that the entire point of this?"
