U.S. judge suspends Fiat takeover of Chrysler
A judge of the U.S. Supreme Court on Monday stopped the sale of Chrysler's assets to Fiat, pending a further order from the court.
Judge Ruth Bader Ginsburg issued the decision after three Indiana pension funds sought to have the sale blocked.
The funds had asked the court to hear their appeal of two lower court rulings backing the sale.
Ginsburg's two-paragraph order did not address that issue, but it does give the court time to consider what it wants to do.
