NATIONAL BRIEFING / WASHINGTON
TIMES WIRE REPORTS
Opponents of Chrysler’s sale to Fiat are asking the Supreme Court to block the deal.
Three Indiana state pension and construction funds filed emergency papers at the high court early today to put the sale on hold so they can pursue an appeal.
The federal appeals court in New York approved the sale Friday, but gave objectors until Monday afternoon to try to get the high court to intervene. The emergency request goes first to Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who handles such matters from New York.
She can act on her own or refer it to the entire court.
