United States First Circuit

Plaintiff's appeal from orders of the district court denying its motion for a TRO and a subsequent urgent motion for relief related to issuance of TRO is dismissed for want of appellate jurisdiction as the denial does not have the practical effect of refusing an injunction. Plaintiff's request of writ of mandamus to require the district court to decide the motion for a preliminary injunction is denied as the present record does not justify such extraordinary relief.
