Text: 7 By order to show cause submitted on notice on June 21, 1993, Chemical moved for an order to attach Haseotes' assets in New York, a mandatory injunction ordering Haseotes to bring his NEL shares into New York, and a preliminary injunction enjoining the sale of the NEL shares to Vitol or attaching a portion of the sale proceeds. The order to show cause, which included a temporary restraining order preventing the closing of the sale, was signed on June 23 by United States District Judge Conboy, who later recused himself. On July 26, 1993 this case was reassigned to Judge McKenna. 8 Following expedited discovery, Judge McKenna held a hearing on August 4, 1993 on Chemical's motions, and also heard Vitol's, Aron's and Cumberland Farms' motions to intervene. The district court granted the motions to intervene. It also granted an attachment of any of Haseotes' assets found in New York City. The court refused to order Haseotes to bring the NEL shares to New York so that they could be attached, to enjoin the Vitol sale, or to attach a portion of the proceeds. 9 Chemical appeals insisting that because the district court found Chemical was entitled to an attachment, it erred in refusing to order Haseotes to bring his only substantial asset--the NEL shares--into New York, or to either enjoin the sale or attach the proceeds. We affirm.
