Furniture Brands Internationa1, Inc., Ashley Furni-
ture Industries, Inc., Ethan Allen G10bal, Inc. et al., and
Standard Furniture Manufacturing 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 1novant’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 FURNITURE BRANDS INTL V. US
mours & Co. v. Phillips Petroleum C0., 835 F.2d 277, 278
(Fed. Cir. 1987); see also Stcmdard Havens Prods. u.
Gen,c0r In,dus., 897 F.2d 511 (Fed. Cir. 199O). 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. Braun,skill, 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.
Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED THAT2
The motions for an injunction are denied.
