  • explaining that under the likelihood-of-success requirement, the movant must demonstrate not only that “this Court erred in its decisions, but also that the Second Circuit is likely to grant mandamus”
  • In the context of a motion to stay proceedings pending mandamus review, there was no irreparable harm where party delayed 2-months before filing motion
  • “‘[I]nexcusable delay in filing’ a motion to stay ‘severely undermines the . . . argument that absent a stay irreparable harm would result.’”
  • “[T]he irreparability is a product of [their] own delay. This is a delaying tactic that is inequitable to the [Plaintiffs] and to the courts as well.” (quoting Hirschfeld v. Bd. of Elections in N.Y.C., 984 F.2d. 35, 39 (2d Cir. 1993)
