Appellate Procedure 7-45<br />

§ 7.62 Stays After Decision<br />

When a party seeks review in the United States Supreme Court, it may<br />

be necessary to stay the decision of the state <strong>appellate</strong> court to preserve<br />

the status quo or prevent mootness. A motion to stay the issuance of the<br />

mandate should be sought in the court that issued the decision and will be<br />

issuing the mandate. When a petition for review of a Court of Appeals<br />

decision has been denied by the <strong>Kansas</strong> Supreme Court, the motion for<br />

stay should be addressed to the Court of Appeals.<br />

Ordinarily, a party must seek a stay from the state court before the<br />

United States Supreme Court will entertain an application for a stay. See<br />

United States Supreme Court Rule 23(3). If the stay is granted before the<br />

mandate is issued, the clerk of the <strong>appellate</strong> courts will hold the mandate.<br />

If the mandate has already been filed with the district court, the <strong>appellate</strong><br />

court can enter an order recalling the mandate from the district court in<br />

order to rule on the motion for stay.<br />
