G.H.C. Reid & Co. v. American Samoan Government
G.H.C. Reid & Co. v. American Samoan Government
Opinion of the Court
Order Denying Motion for Stay of Enforcement:
On September 23, 1994, petitioner filed, pursuant to A.S.C.A. §§ 4.1041 et seq., for judicial review of respondents' administrative decisions awarding the 1994-95 school milk and juice contract to intervenor, and sought preliminary injunctive relief preventing implementation of these decisions. The hearing on the order to show cause was held on September 29, 1994. Counsel for petitioner, respondents, and intervenor were present, and, without objection, intervenor became a party.
We consider petitioner's application for provisional relief as a request,
Petitioner has failed to show that it will suffer great or irreparable harm if the stay is not issued. Petitioner's contract with respondent American Samoan Government has been terminated. Its losses, if any, can be recovered either administratively or judicially by ascertainable, money damages. Since petitioner will not suffer great or irreparable harm, we need not consider the likelihood of the ultimate result.
Petitioner's request for provisional relief is denied.
It is so ordered.
