This document is a procedural order issued by the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, addressing case management and consolidation following the resolution of related appellate proceedings before the Supreme Court of the United States.
The Court granted the motion to consolidate Case No. 26-7021 (Blasket Renewable Investments, LLC v. Kingdom of Spain) with the already consolidated proceedings in Case No. 25-7136 (Cube Infrastructure Fund SICAV, et al. v. Kingdom of Spain). Furthermore, acting sua sponte, the Court ordered that the newly consolidated cases be returned to its active docket. This directive was issued in light of the Supreme Court’s denial of the petition for a writ of certiorari in Kingdom of Spain v. Blasket Renewable Investments LLC (No. 24-1130) on June 29, 2026.
In its operative directions, the Court instructed the parties to file motions to govern the consolidated cases by August 3, 2026. Emphasizing judicial efficiency, the Court strongly urged the parties to submit a joint proposal for any requested briefing schedule. The panel explicitly warned against repetitious submissions, noting that aligned parties may be required to file a joint brief subject to standard word limits. The Court mandated that any requests for separate briefing or expanded aggregate word allotments must be supported by detailed justifications specifying the necessary word count for each distinct issue.
