UK: Ruling from Outer House of Scottish Court of Session expected around 1000BST
(could be later) regarding legal action seeking to order PM to send letter to EU
asking for Art. 50 extension if a deal isn't reached by October 19. 
- On Friday 4th, gov't documents submitted to Court implying that it would abide
by 'Benn Act'. 
- Petitioners seeking to make sure No. 10 does not attempt to frustrate the Act
in any way, such as asking other EU member state to veto extension or sending
second letter contradicting the first. 
- Ruling in petitioners favour would further constrain gov'ts actions in the
coming weeks re: Brexit.
