Opinion
Case No. 12-15687
01-14-2013
Hon. Victoria A. Roberts
ORDER
Plaintiff filed this "Motion And Request Granting Stay Of All Proceedings At 36th District Court until this case has been adjudicated at United States District Court In The Eastern District Of Michigan Southern Division Final Order." (Doc. 5).
The Court treats this as a request for temporary restraining order under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65. This request is DENIED.
The burden is on Plaintiff to show why a restraining order should issue. The showing Plaintiff fails to make is that she has no adequate remedy at law, United States v. Miami Univ., 294 F.3d 797, 816 (6th Cir. 2002), and that: (1) she will suffer immediate and irreparable harm if the order is not granted; (2) the equities are in her favor; (3) she will probably succeed on the merits; and (4) the public interest will benefit from the issuance of the order. Summit County Democratic Cent. & Executive Co. v. Blackwell, 388 F.3d 547, 550-51 (6th Cir. 2004). Accordingly, Plaintiff does not meet her burden for a temporary restraining order.
Plaintiff's request is DENIED.
IT IS ORDERED.
