OPINION OF THE COURT
STAPLETON, Circuit Judge:
In these consolidated cases, we must decide an issue of first impression: is an order denying an application under 15 U.S.C. § 1116(d) for an ex parte seizure order appealable? We hold that such an order constitutes a denial of a form of injunction and is immediately appealable pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1). We also conclude that the district court’s refusal to grant a seizure order in this case was an abuse of discretion.
