Pike was set to become the first woman executed in the state in more than 200 years before the court intervened.
The court granted a short stay for death row inmate Christa Pike to consider claims about her history of severe sexual abuse.

The ruling is the second in less than a month finding that states have a role in regulating sports-related event contracts, according to CNBC.
