It'll be interesting to see how things between the two sides develop:
Egypt's top court today overturned a decree issued by newly-elected President Muhammed Mursi reinstating the Islamist-led parliament, which met today by reconvening in open defiance of the military, even as power struggle between state institutions heightened. Egypt's Supreme Constitutional Court issued the ruling suspending President Mursi's Sunday decree reinstating the People's Assembly, the lower house of Egypt's parliament.
...
Al-Katatni declared he will refer the decision of the High Constitutional Court (HCC) to the Appeals Court, and said the parliament is aware of both its rights and responsibilities. However, lawmakers from several liberal and leftists parties 'boycotted' the session, with some describing President Mursi's move as a "constitutional coup".
