Did I miss the breakdown of the decision.

How did the Court rule?

The stay is linked on Vladecks twitter feed

Signed only by Roberts

Seems all this does is stay the contempt ruling until the DOJ responds to the Court by Dec. 31.

Sounds like Roberts could also reimpose the contempt after that point, depending on the response

No decision. Chief Justice Roberts (acting alone) granted a temporary stay of a D.C. Circuit decision until the full Court decides if they will hear an appeal from that decision. The parts of the case file that are public show that the issue before the Court is whether U.S. courts may hear a criminal prosecution of a company owned by a foreign government.
