TORONTO: The US Department of Justice will not be filing an emergency stay on Friday night to overturn a Seattle's judge ruling that blocked a US executive order temporarily barring refugees and nationals from seven countries from entering the United States, a spokesman said. The White House had earlier said the emergency motion would be filed 'at the earliest possible time.' READ ALSO:
