The order does not say how any justice voted, as is usual on the emergency docket.
Half of 300 rulings on applications decided without a response came 8 to 28 days after filing, and the median was 14 days; this one was ruled on 101 days after filing.

What it means

The emergency ruling addresses only the request for a temporary pause; it does not decide who wins the underlying case. The First Circuit's ruling is not paused; no related merits case is listed, and the application was not set for argument.
