FIU Law Professor, Howard Wasserman, cited in Federal Practice and Procedure, Wright & Miller.
In § 395 (4Motion for a Stay or Injunction, 16A Fed. Prac. & Proc. Juris. § 3954 (4th ed.)):
“For a detailed discussion of stay requests in the marriage-equality litigation, see Josh Blackman & Howard M. Wasserman, The Process of Marriage Equality, 43 Hastings Const. L.Q. 243, 325 (2016) (arguing that “[w]ith the same-sex marriage cases, the Supreme Court aggrandized for itself the role as the arbiter of the status quo in high-stakes civil rights litigation,” and that “[d]istrict judges—even those who blanch at this repudiation of their independent judgments—are now on notice that injunctions [in such litigation] should be put on hold after the Supreme Court has taken an interest in an issue”).”
