Washington (CNN)The Supreme Court could now decide as early as Wednesday afternoon whether an unnamed foreign-owned company will have to pay daily fines for avoiding a grand jury subpoena related to Robert Mueller's special counsel investigation.

The company submitted a reply under seal to the Supreme Court earlier today, following written arguments it and the Justice Department made last week.

The filing Wednesday tees up a vote by the full Supreme Court.

1. And why is this company objecting so much to revealing this / providing this info? Makes one...

wonder what's going on here.

3. If it's the case I'm thinking of,

the claim is it's because to comply here would be illegal in the country it mostly does business in.

Comply here, get arrested and convicted there. Don't comply here, get found in contempt. It's the kind of catch-22 that most countries try to avoid putting people (which means companies) in.


Then there's always the reasoning, "If the government wants to know anything about you, the only reason you wouldn't eagerly give them in information for public use is if you're doing something illegal." So much for privacy rights. To exercise them is to confess to criminality. I guess.

2. I guess we will see if the GOP Supreme Court is on on America's side

or in the pocket of foreign interests
