An appeals court on Friday temporarily blocked the Justice Department from releasing audio recordings of former President Joe Biden’s interviews with his ghostwriter, granting a 10-day administrative pause while it considers Biden’s emergency appeal.

A three-judge panel on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, comprised of Chief Judge Sri Srinivasan, Judge Gregory Katsas, and Judge Florence Pan, ordered the DOJ not to release the contested recordings to the Heritage Foundation and its former Oversight Project director, Mike Howell, until 11:59 p.m. on July 20.
