The Supremes did not issue an opinion in Bysiewicz v. DiNardo. They ruled from the bench then issued the attached order. They will issue a decision later (see Order below). This has happened before, see:
Connecticut Fund for the Environment, Inc., et al. v. City of Stamford et al. 192 Conn. 247 (1984)
Office of the Governor v. Select Committee of Inquiry, 269 Conn. 850, 853 (2004)
Office of the Governor v. Select Comm. of Inquiry, 271 Conn. 540, 544 (2004)
By the way, in England, the decision from the trial bench is the norm; the written decision is the exception.
