Why do you believe that it would require bribing a judge to obtain a 90 day stay?

" It is also quite possible that the
outcome of the criminal inves
tigation will benefit the parties
and the Court by streamlining the
issues and questions presented in this action.
Accordingly, the interests of judicial efficiency
weigh in favor of a temporary stay. "

Believe it or not, the interest of the court per se in a matter is simply finding the most efficient way of disposing of it. What the court is essentially saying here is that letting the criminal proceeding go forward for a while might lead to a shorter path for dealing with this civil lawsuit.
