MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
Will County's motion for reconsideration of this court's June 21, 2002 Memorandum Opinion and Order is denied. That Order was based upon customary standards for granting preliminary relief as well as the All Writs Act. It did not remove the state case (plaintiff did that), and the Order was entered in this case in aid of this court's jurisdiction and to protect and effectuate its judgment. We are not concerned whether Will County was added as a party defendant here a few minutes before or a few minutes after the state case was filed. This court had and has both subject matter and personal jurisdiction to enforce the FERC conditions, and it has done so.
