This is just an "oops" we messed up. We said we'd hear the case, but we shouldn't have because the lower court hasn't ruled on it yet (which also means the stay of the trial court order shouldn't have been vacated). Ordinarily, you can't skip over the lower court to have it heard by the supreme court.
