How courts have described this case

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

  • “An injunction is inappropriate if the possibility of future harm to the plaintiff arising out of the behavior plaintiff seeks to enjoin is purely speculative.”
  • “[T]he very import of Garland is that a plaintiff need only prevail on one significant issue to qualify as a prevailing party.”
  • “Given the alteration of [the Plaintiff’s] legal rights and [the Defendant’s] legal obligations that resulted from the court’s grant of injunctive relief, there is no question that [the Plaintiff] prevailed on this issue . . . and is entitled to an award of attorney’s fees.”
