Appeal from the United States Court of International
Trade in consolidated case no. 06-CV-0290, Judge Gregory
W. Carman.
ON MOTION
Before BRYSON, MAYER, and LINN, Circuit Judges.
BRYsoN, Circuit Ju,dge. g
0 R D E R
SKF USA, Inc. moves for an injunction, pending ap-
peal, to prohibit the United States from distributing funds
currently being held for SKF.
in deciding whether to grant a stay or injunction,
pending appeal, this court "assesses the movant’s chances
of success on the merits and weighs the equities as they
affect the parties and the public." E.I. Dupont de Ne-
mours & Co. v. Phillips PetroZeum Co., 835 F.2d 277, 278
(Fed. Cir. 1987); see also Stan,dard Havens Prods. u.
Gencor Indus., 897 F.2d 511 (Fed. Cir. 199O). T0 prevail,
a movant must establish a strong likelihood of success on
the merits or, failing that, must demonstrate that it has a
substantial case on the merits and that the harm factors
militate in its favor Hilton v. Braunskill, 481 U.S. '770,
778 (1987).
Without prejudicing the ultimate disposition of this
case, and based upon the motions papers submitted, the
court determines that SKF has not met its burden.
