Syllabus
An application for a stay, pending review by this Court, of a Nebraska District Court's contempt order committing applicants to jail is denied because of lack of jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 2101(f), where, after the application was filed with the Circuit Justice, the Nebraska Supreme Court dismissed each applicant's appeal from the contempt order to that court "for lack of an appealable order."
