Enelow–Ettelson rule (en-[schwa]-loh–et-[schwa]l-s[schwa]n). The defunct doctrine that an order staying federal-court proceedings pending the determination of an equitable defense (such as arbitration) is an injunction appealable under 28 USCA § 1292(a)(1) if the proceeding stayed was an action that could have been maintained as an action at law before the merger of law and equity.
