FISHER, Senior Judge, concurring in the decision to grant the motions at issue:
I do not join the lengthy opinion of the court. It is not our task to decide the merits
of these appeals and the opinion says too much on that topic. In addition, considering
that the moratorium on evictions is not affected by the trial court’s order, the opinion
gives too much credence to appellant’s claim of irreparable harm and fails to
recognize that the landlords suffer harm from the granting of a stay. But this is not
an ordinary appeal, and I ultimately agree that a stay is warranted because the trial
court has declared an act of the Council to be unconstitutional.
