The request for a stay is granted. All Court-ordered
deadlines in this case are stayed pending the restoration of
appropriations for the Department of Justice. The Court will
accommodate any necessary adjustments to the schedule in this
case after appropriations are restored. The parties should work
cooperatively to suggest any necessary adjustment to the
schedule in this case after appropriations are restored.

This stay does not apply to actions by Visa or third

parties, including any negotiations Visa may have with third
