Supreme Court Writ Remains Valid Despite Missing Documents; Injunctions Seek to Prevent Harm While Case Pending

-
All injunctions, whether interim, interlocutory, or final, have the purpose of preventing irreparable harm while a case is pending.
-

-
The Attorney General and President are facing the sourness of their own medicine by complaining about the injunction blocking ministerial vetting.
