ORDER
Research & Diagn0stic Systems, Inc. and Tech11e C0r-
p0rati0n (c011ective1y "Research & Diagn0stic Systems")
move for a stay, pending disposition of this appea1, of the

STRECK V. RESEA.RCH & DIAGNOSTIC 2
permanent injunction entered by the United States Dis-
trict Court for the District of Nebraska. Streck, lnc.
opposes. Research & Diagnostic Systems replies.
To obtain a stay, pending appeal, a movant must es-
tablish a strong likelihood of success on the merits or,
failing that, nonetheless demonstrate a substantial case
on the merits provided that the harm factors militate in
its favor. Stando:rd Hcwen,s Prods. v. Gencor Indu,s., 897
F.2d 511, 513 (Fed. Cir. 1990) (citing Hilton v. Braunskill,
481 U.S. 770, 778 (1987)). In deciding whether to grant a
stay, pending appeal, this court “assesses the m0vant’s
chances of success on the merits and weighs the equities
as they affect the parties and the public.” E.I. du Pont de
Nemours & Co. u. Phillips Petr0leum Co., 835 F.2d 277,
278 (Fed. Cir. 1987); see also Stan,dard Hcwens Prods.,
897 F.2d at 513.
Based on the arguments in the motions papers, and
without prejudicing the ultimate disposition of this case
by a merits pane1, we determine that Research 82 Diag-
nostic Systems has not met its burden to obtain a stay of
the permanent injunction.
Upon consideration thereof,
IT ls ORDERED THAT:
The motion is denied Any other pending motions are
denied as moot.
