14 ABBOTT v. PEREZ Opinion of the Court The provisions are also textually interlocked. Section 1292(a)(1) does not apply where “direct review may be had in the Supreme Court,” i.e., where §1253 applies. If the “practical effects” test applied under §1292(a)(1) but not §1253, the consequences would be unfortunate and strange. We would have to identify the magic language needed for an order to qualify as an order granting or denying an injunction, and that standard would hardly constitute the sort of “[s]imple” rule that the dissent prizes. See post, at 14 (opinion of SOTOMAYOR, J.). Then, having developed that standard, we would have to apply it in any case in which a party took an appeal to us from an order of a three-judge court that clearly had the practical effect of an injunction. If we concluded that the magicwords test was not met, the order would appear to be appealable to one of the courts of appeals under §1292(a)(1). In the language of that provision, the order would be an “orde[r] of [a] district cour[t] of the United States . . . granting [an] injunctio[n].” And because this Court would lack jurisdiction under §1253, the appeal would not fall within §1292(1)’s exception for cases “where a direct review may be had in the Supreme Court.” Having taken pains to provide for review in this Court, and not in the courts of appeals, of three-judge court orders granting injunctions Congress surely did not intend to produce that result.11 —————— 11 The dissent sees nothing strange about such a result because we held in Mitchell v. Donovan, 398 U. S. 427 (1970) (per curiam), that we lacked jurisdiction under §1253 to hear an appeal from a three-judge court order denying a declaratory judgment. The decision in Donovan was based on the plain language of §1253, which says nothing about orders granting or denying declaratory judgments. By contrast, §1253 gives us jurisdiction to hear appeals from orders granting or denying injunctions. The same goes for Rockefeller v. Catholic Medical Center of Brooklyn & Queens, Inc., 397 U. S. 820 (1970) (per curiam), also cited by the dissent. In that case, the District Court issued a declaratory judgment,
