Filed opinion of the court by Judge Lee. Defendants’ request to stay the October 7 order granting Plaintiffs’ Rule 60(b)(5) motion to modify the Consent Decree is DENIED. Turning to the 13 class members and approximately 442 “potential class members” who are the subject of the November 13 order, as to those individuals who were arrest-ed pursuant to an I-200 warrant, Defendants’ request to stay the November 13 order pending appeal is GRANTED. As to those individuals, who were arrested absent a warrant, Defendants’ motion to stay the November 13 order is GRANTED pending individual violation determinations pursuant to Section IV(E) of the Consent Decree. During oral argument, Defendants requested that the court stay this order for 14 days to permit Defendants to seek emergency relief from the Supreme Court, if necessary. That request is GRANTED. An expedited briefing schedule and oral argument date will be set by separate order. Thomas L. Kirsch II, Circuit Judge, dissenting; John Z. Lee, Circuit Judge and Doris L. Pryor, Circuit Judge.
