The unanimous ruling said among other things that Jones failed to show he would suffer "irreparable or serious injury" if the stay was denied. The court upheld the ruling of District Judge Kathleen Delaney, who dismissed the latest legal action by Jones.
Jones is accused of presiding over cases involving the son of his girlfriend, Deputy District Attorney Lisa Willard, in which she was involved. Jones has denied the allegation.
