July 3, 2006.
JAMES R. ZAZZALI, Associate Justice.
The within matter having been initiated by the Casino Association of New Jersey, which filed a motion with this Court pursuant to Rule 2:9-8 seeking emergent relief in the form of a single-Justice order for temporary restraints and an issuance of a writ in lieu of mandamus to respondents Governor Corzine and the Casino Control Commission;
And the movants having argued that the loss or suspension of the use of a casino license for even a short period of time would inflict devastating harm on the gaming industry, the State, and its citizens and would constitute an unconstitutional taking;
And respondents having answered that relief is precluded by the separation of powers doctrine and that movants are not otherwise entitled to the relief requested;
And the Appellate Division previously having denied relief to movants pending disposition of the appeal in that court;
And the Court having carefully reviewed the submissions of the parties;
And the Court having heard oral argument today, July 3, 2006, and having given due consideration to the arguments of counsel;
And the Court being satisfied that movants have not established sufficient grounds for relief;
It is on this 3rd day of July, 2006, ORDERED that the motion for emergent relief is DENIED.
