It’s being reported that the paperwork has just been filed by the Trump administration to appeal the ruling of the 9th circuit on their immigration EO:

Paperwork just filed by Trump administration indicates it will appeal last week’s adverse ruling in the 9th Circuit Court to larger panel

According to the report Trump is appealing this en banc, which I believe means they are appealing it to a wider set of judges on the 9th circuit as opposed to appealing it to the Supreme Court.
According to Fox Business, 11 judges would be selected at random from a pool of about 30-40 judges.
This is an effort, of course, to undo the stay that was put on by the district court in Washington State.
I’ll have more on this when I get it.
UPDATE: Here’s a bit more from Jamie Dupree:
