Climate United Fund v. Citibank, N.A.

Sitting en banc, the D.C. Circuit resolved the government’s appeal in the dispute over the Environmental Protection Agency’s termination of grants awarded to the plaintiffs. On August 4, 2026, the court issued a per curiam judgment, without a memorandum opinion, vacating the portion of the district court’s preliminary injunction that had enjoined the EPA defendants from giving effect to the grant terminations, and it directed the clerk to issue the mandate and dissolve the administrative stay. On August 7, 2026, the en banc court granted the government’s unopposed motion to stay the mandate and extend the administrative stay pending the plaintiffs’ anticipated petition for a writ of certiorari to the Supreme Court. Because the mandate remains stayed, the vacatur of that portion of the injunction does not take effect while Supreme Court review is sought.
