Supreme Court of the United States

6-3 decision by Justice Barrett holding universal injunctions likely exceed federal courts' equitable authority; injunctions narrowed to named plaintiffs with a 30-day delay before Section 2 of the executive order could take effect. The Court did not rule

Caveat

The Court expressly declined to decide the merits; a class action restored a nationwide block days later.
