ORDER On May 8, 2024, the plaintiffs filed a Motion for Stay of Effective Date or Preliminary Injunction (Doc. 7) challenging the United States Department of Education's recently published rule relating to Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972. Because the rule will take effect on August 1, 2024, the plaintiffs are seeking a stay or preliminarily injunction and have requested an expedited briefing schedule. Doc. 13. At this time, the defendants have not appeared or responded to the complaint.The General Order calls for reassignment to a district judge after the first of three "triggering events" absent unanimous consent. None of these events have occurred in this case, and it does not appear they will occur in the timely manner contemplated in the General Order and necessitated by the nature of the relief requested in the Motion for Stay of Effective Date or Preliminary Injunction. Accordingly, the case is now due to be assigned to a district judge for all further proceedings. The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to reassign this case to a district judge randomly drawn.. Signed by Magistrate Judge Gray M Borden on 5/13/2024. (KNS) (Entered: 05/13/2024) Order Reassigning Case

**VACATED pursuant to USCA Order 95 ** MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER: Plaintiffs filed suit, contending the Final Rule should be vacated in its entirety because it violates the Administrative Procedure Act ("APA"), 5 U.S.C. § 706(2)(A). Plaintiffs then moved for a preliminary injunction, seeking a stay of the Final Rule's effective date or, in the alternative, preliminarily enjoining the Department from enforcing the Final Rule in their States. Plaintiffs must, among other things, establish a substantial likelihood of success on the claims advanced in their complaint to obtain a preliminary injunction from this court. They failed to sustain that burden. Accordingly, the court DENIES the motion for a preliminary injunction.. Signed by Judge Annemarie Carney Axon on 7/30/2024. (CLC) Modified on 5/27/2026 (KCW).
