How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• explaining that hardship includes the “heightened uncertainty and resulting behavior modification that may result from delayed resolution”
• determining the issue unfit for judicial review because it was “dependent on facts” which would “focus the dispute.”
• noting Nebraska case law “conflicts” on the issue of whether a court may consider the parties’ conduct in determining whether a contract is ambiguous, “but suggests that a court may do so”
• “Delayed judicial resolution would only increase the parties’ uncertainty, and would require [petitioners] to gamble millions of dollars on an uncertain legal foundation.”
• “Judicial resolution of a legal question fit for judicial review yet portending no immediate hardship would constitute little more than a law review article.”
