How later courts describe this case

  • “Our clerk’s mistaken rejection of the complaint when it was timely offered should not bar its consideration, and it should be deemed timely filed.”
  • “the parties to a settlement will not be heard to complain that the relief is substantially less than what' they would have received from a successful resolution after trial”
  • prosecu-torial misconduct warrants dismissal where misconduct challenged has become “entrenched and flagrant”
  • injunction inappropriate where a clear tension existed between NEPA's mandate to evaluate environmental impacts and another statute's direction that contracts be in place within twenty-one months of passage and where it would interfere with a long-term contractual relationship
