No, a stay pending appeal is pretty typical. But I'd like to know on what grounds it was granted, other than tradition. It seems to me the prudent thing to do, but it also seems to fly in the face of all the requirements for a stay.

I want nothing more from the courts than for the law to be followed.



Pfft, I also hope the Prop 8 Proponents are granted standing, so the case can actually be appealed. But I don't want the law flouted in order to get there. If they don't have standing, then that should unfortunately be the end of it.
