“The Government seeks an indefinite stay of all proceedings in Fairholme—and, by extension, Amici’s case—based on a preclusion argument against the Fairholme Plaintiffs that, even if correct, would not apply to Amici. The Government’s motion thus affects Amici’s interests while ignoring the broader context of these related cases. Amici’s proposed amicus brief brings this context into proper focus,” says Pershing Square’s motion.

"In other words, dropping the DC District Court case not only strengthened Pershing Square’s other lawsuit, it may have strengthened Fairholme’s case as well because it shows that the stay, if granted, would have a broader impact." <<> copy pasted both from article. ackman helped faithholmes, as the govt was trying to get a stay on judgment. Ackman claims based on "Amicus Curiae" the govt is a friend of the court, which is a conflict of interest.
