Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts on Tuesday temporarily blocked the handover of former President Donald Trump’s tax returns to a House committee that has sought them for three years.

The decision by Roberts came the day after Trump filed an emergency appeal asking the high court to block the request by the House Ways and Means Committee, which the DC Circuit Court of Appeals previously signed off on.

Roberts’ decision will give the Supreme Court time to weigh legal options in Trump’s appeal, and delay the handover of the records, which could have happened as early as Tuesday.
