1 The Court of Appeals has jurisdiction to hear appeals from “[i]nterlocutory orders of the district 
courts … granting, continuing, modifying, refusing or dissolving injunctions.” 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1).

the Court of Appeals to review a TRO decision that “has the practical effect of an injunction,” or if 
necessary to prevent “serious, perhaps irreparable, consequence[s],” Maryville Baptist Church, Inc. v.
