CA1 finds a case that is consistent with Robertsball and plays along, but one judge writes separately to say Kavball rules govern moving forward www.ca1.uscourts.gov/sites/ca1/fi...

Our analysis of the Nken factors follows our conclusion that this case is of a piece with
McMahon.
Because this case is in effect a subset of another in which the Supreme Court has
already issued a stay pending appeal, thus permitting the RIF challenged there to proceed, the government has made a strong showing that it is entitled to the same interim relief here. In light of the unique factual and legal overlap between these two cases, and the arguments presented by the parties in their briefing to us, we are persuaded at this preliminary stage that this is the sort of
"like case" referred to by the Supreme Court in Boyle. 145 S. Ct. at 2654.
For all these reasons, the motion for a stay pending appeal is GRANTED. The
accompanying motion for an administrative stay is DENIED AS MOOT.
AFRAME, Circuit Judge, concurring. I join my colleagues' conclusion that a stay is warranted here because this is a "like" case to McMahon under Boyle. New York v. McMahon,
606 U.S._
_ 145 S. Ct. 2643 (2025); Trump v. Boyle, 606 U.S. -
_ 145 S. Ct. 2653 (2025). I
write separately to emphasize that while the unreasoned order in McMahon was essential to resolving the government's stay appeal, that order's import will be limited as this case moves ahead.
Justice Kavanaugh has explained why the Supreme Court frequently does not issue
reasoned orders when granting a stay of interim relief:
[A]n opinion for [the Supreme Court] addressing likelihood of success on the merits for an emergency application can sometimes come at a cost. A written opinion by [the] Court assessing likelihood of success on the merits at a preliminary stage can create a lock-in effect because of the opinion's potential vertical precedential effect (de jure or de facto), which can thereby predetermine the case's outcome in the proceedings in the lower courts and hamper percolation across other lower courts on the underlying merits question.
Labrador v. Poe, 601 U.S. |
_, 144 S. Ct. 921, 933-34 (Kavanaugh, J., concurring).…

CA1 refuses Trump’s request to enforce his animus-soaked anti-trans passport policy pending appeal.

Next stop: SCOTUS shadow docket.

www.ca1.uscourts.gov/sites/ca1/fi...

United States Court of Appeals
For the First Circuit
No. 25-1579
VIKTOR AGATHA; CHASTAIN ANDERSON; BELLA BOE; DAVID DOE; AC GOLDBERG; RAY GORLIN; DREW HALL; CHELLE LEBLANC; ASHTON ORR; ZAYA PERYSIAN; SAWYER SOE; and REID SOLOMON-LANE, on behalf of themselves and others similarly situated;
Plaintiffs, Appellees,
V.
DONALD J. TRUMP, in his official capacity as President of the United States; U.S.
DEPARTMENT OF STATE; MARCO RUBIO, in his official capacity as Secretary of State; and the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA;
Defendants, Appellants.
Before
Montecalvo, Rikelman, and Aframe,
Circuit Judges.
ORDER OF COURT
Entered: September 4, 2025
The government has moved for a stay pending its appeal of several orders entered
by the district court that preliminarily enjoined the U.S. Department of State ("Department") and its Secretary from enforcing a policy ("Passport Policy"), promulgated by the Department in connection with an executive order ("Executive Order") issued by President Donald J. Trump, that would require U.S. passports to state the biological sex of their bearer at birth. See Mot. for Stay Pending Appeal, Orr v. Trump, No. 25-1579 (Ist Cir. July 18, 2025). Under the Department's prior policy, passport applicants could select a sex marker of "M," "F," or "X," which was not required to correspond with the applicant's biological sex. In addition to the government's motion, we have received and considered a response from the plaintiffs, who are transgender or non-binary Americans representing two certified classes, and a reply from the government.

We consider four factors: (1) whether the government has made "a strong showing that [it] is likely to succeed on the merits"; (2) whether the government has shown that it "will be irreparably injured absent a stay"; (3) "whether issuance of the stay will substantially injure the other parties interested in the proceeding"; and (4) "where the public interest lies." Does 1-3 v. Mills, 39 F.4th 20, 24 (1st Cir. 2022) (quoting Bos. Parent Coal. for Acad. Excellence Corp. v. Sch. Comm. of Bos., 996 F.3d 37,44 (1st Cir. 2021)). The first two factors "are the most critical." Nken, 556 U.S. at 434.
We begin with the likelihood of success on the merits. The district court concluded
that the plaintiffs were likely to succeed on their claim that the Department's implementation of its Passport Policy was arbitrary and capricious, in violation of the Administrative Procedure Act ("APA"). See Mem. & Order on Pls.' Mot. to Stay Agency Action and for Prelim. Inj., Orr v.
Trump, No. 25-cv-10313 (D. Mass. Apr. 18, 2025), ECF No. 74 at 33-43; 7 U.S.C. § 706(2)(A).
In its stay papers, the government, relying on Franklin v. Massachusetts, 505 U.S. 788 (1992), and Bradford v. Department of Labor, 101 F.4th 707 (10th Cir. 2024), cert. denied, 145 S. Ct. 1047
(2025), contends that the Passport Policy is not subject to review under the APA because it was
"compelled by" the President's Executive Order. But agency action that carries out a presidential directive is ordinarily subject to APA review. See New York v. Trump, 133 F.4th 51, 70 n. 17 (ist Cir. 2025); Nebraska v. Su, 121 F.4th 1, 15 (9th Cir. 2024) ("The Supreme Court has never excepted a final rule from APA review because it carried out a presidential directive."); Chamber of Com. of U.S. v. Reich, 74 F.3d 1322, 1327 (D.C. Cir. 1996). And, unlike in Bradford, the Executive Order at issue here, which instructed the Secretary to "implement changes to require... passports" to "accurately reflect the holder's sex," Exec. Order No. 14,1…

janusweb was the closest to this vision, similar to aframe but more geared to social immersive web. mozilla got a lot of ideas from janus during early days of aframe github.com/jbaicoianu/j...

After becoming disabled, I got an e-cargo trike to keep cycling safely & comfortably.

It's brilliant. Except for barriers like these.

Delighted that GMCDP, with legal advice from Leigh Day, are pushing @andyburnham.bsky.social to commit ££ to removal.

Woman on cargo trike with white toy poodle in front bucket. They are trying to access a traffic-free walking, wheeling and cycling route but they cannot access. There is a steel aframe barrier that the trike cannot fit through and a horse style (timber on the ground) that the trike is too heavy to be lifted over.

Yeah,my first pass at this was in AFrame several years ago. When Apple Vision Pro was about to launch I wanted a small project to use to learn visionOS development. This otherwise silly project has been a really useful way to learn. I still wanna revisit the WebXR version someday though.
