Washington (CNN)The Supreme Court will meet behind closed doors on Friday to discuss a mystery case related to special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation.

3. No, last week was just about sustaining the daily fines WHILE the appeal

made its way through the courts.

Now they're appealing last week's ruling that the daily fines will continue.

And they're still appealing the heart of the case.
