Big maybe. The impression I'm getting from the stories I've read is that the motion for appeal wasn't filed until yesterday, and Ginsburg ordered this temporary stay to allow time to examine it. I would be amazed if the court would up holding up the merger past next week.
I think it was filed on Friday. I’ve read that it is a very good sign and it says “whoa, hold on there - this is going too fast and we need to examine the details”. Imho, a real blow to Obama.
I don’t get that - I read both the app for stay, and the SG’s response today, and got it. How slow are these justices, anyway?
