Jose Miguel Tepos-Perez v. Immigration and Naturalization Service, (Two Cases) , 449 F.2d 1290 ( 1971 )

449 F.2d 1290

Jose Miguel TEPOS-PEREZ et al., Plaintiffs-Appellees,
v.
IMMIGRATION AND NATURALIZATION SERVICE, Appellant (two cases).

Nos. 26547, 26548.

United States Court of Appeals,
Ninth Circuit.

Oct. 7, 1971.

1

James R. Dooley, Asst. U. S. Atty., (argued), Robert L. Meyer, U. S. Atty., Frederick M. Brosio, Jr., Chief, Civil Div., Los Angeles, Cal., for appellant.

2

John F. Sheffield (argued), Norman B. Silver, Los Angeles, Cal., for the plaintiffs-appellees.

3

Before CHAMBERS and ELY, Circuit Judges, and BATTIN,* District Judge.

4

On this appeal from the granting of a temporary injunction, it appears from colloquy of counsel that there have been changes of circumstances which might or might not be material to the continuance of the temporary injunction.

5

We find this problem with the temporary injunction: It has sort of an open end which puts the duration of the order, for practical purposes, out of the court's control.

6

The case is remanded to the district court to consider any intervening events. If it believes that there should still be a temporary injunction, the old one should be vacated and a new one entered. If such course is followed, a new appeal, of course, could be taken and someone should move to expedite.
