Mark Brnovich, Arizona Attorney General, and the State of Arizona (hereinafter, 

the “State”) hereby make an emergency request for a fifteen-minute telephonic hearing at 

the Court’s earliest convenience for purposes of the State making an oral motion for a 

stay pending appeal of the preliminary injunction entered by this Court on September 27, 

2018 (“Preliminary Injunction”), which enjoined enforcement of A.R.S. § 35-393.01(A). 

 Given that the Preliminary Injunction relates to a question of first impression in 

the Ninth Circuit, covers all contracts with the State, and thus is already affecting the 

myriad state RFPs that are pending and will be issued shortly, the State respectfully 

submits that a short telephonic hearing is warranted to allow the State to make (and 

obtain a ruling on) an immediate oral request for a stay pending appeal. 

Counsel for Plaintiffs and the State are available for a brief, fifteen-minute 

telephonic hearing at the following times: 

 Today, September 28, from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m.; 

 Monday, October 1, from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and also from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m.; 

 During the morning of Tuesday, October 2. 

Respectfully submitted this 28th day of September, 2018.
