Furniture Brands lnternati0nal, Inc., Ashley Furni-
ture lndustries, Inc., Ethan Allen Global, Inc. et al., and
Standard Furniture l\/Ianufacturing Co., Inc. each sepa-
rately move for an injunction, pending appeal, to prohibit
the United States from distributing funds currently being
held for each appellant.
In deciding whether to grant a stay or injunction,
pending appeal, this court "assesses the movant’s chances
of success on the merits and weighs the equities as they
affect the parties and the public.” E.I. Dupont de Ne-
5 FURN`lTURE BRANDS INTL V. US
mou,rs & Co. v. Phillips Petroleum Co.,
835 F.2d 277, 278
(Fed. Cir. 1987); see also Standard Hcwens Prods. u.
Gencor Indus.,
897 F.2d 511 (Fed. Cir. 1990). To prevail,
a movant must establish a strong likelihood of success on
the merits or, failing that, must demonstrate that it has a
substantial case on the merits and that the harm factors
militate in its favor. Hilton v. Brounskill,
481 U.S. 770,
778 (1987).
Without prejudicing the ultimate disposition of these
cases, and based upon the motions papers submitted, the
court determines that the appellants have not met their
burden.
According1y,
IT Is 0RDERED THAT:
The motions for an injunction are denied.
