Hmm. Looks like this is what was actually denied:
Oct 31 2008 Application (08A391) for an injunction pending disposition of the petition for a writ of certiorari, submitted to Justice Souter.
Nov 3 2008 Application (08A391) denied by Justice Souter.
Sounds to me like the application to lock Obama up until the petition is "disposed" was denied. The petition itself has not been denied. The typical legal maneuver of attempting an end run...rarely succeeds, but you always try.
