Splitting 5-4 in the first of two rulings on government displays of the Ten Commandments, the Supreme Court on Monday upheld a federal court order against a display of the religious document on the wall of a courthouse in Kentucky.

But there were multiple issues in that case. The Kentucky courthouse displayed the 10 Commandments by themselves, and there was an injunction issued against that. Then, they took that display down and put up a display that included a number of other historical documents & symbols. The Supreme Court ruling is supposed to address both displays.

That's why I'm asking if they struck down just the first display of the 10 Commandments alone (which was already removed anyhow) or also the current display with the other symbols.
