The High Court of Justice adjourns following a six-hour hearing in the petitions against the appointment of Shas chair Aryeh Deri as health and interior minister.
It is not clear when the expanded panel of 11 justices will issue a ruling in the case, and it is unlikely to come today.
It is possible that the justices will issue a ruling first and only later publish their full reasoning for the decision.
