The court said the government should have sought congressional approval of the scheme assets freeze instead of automatically.
The five men at the center of the case was only one week allowed 10 in cash and may need a special permit for other expenses.
But the decision leaves the question of future status. The Treasury was given a month to resolve some of the questions and the lower courts still watch the rest.
In its decision, the judge said the Supreme Court if the government would take far-reaching action to combat terrorism requires the consent of Parliament.

Both contracts were part of British law no parliamentary debate, the men said, was unfair because the government was criminal, it creates a vote.
The men also claimed that the British system, beyond what had been the United Nations should be criticized, particularly those related to terrorism, rather than a relationship during the trial was.
Lord Hope, said the Finance Minister had the power, which has been developed and implemented the contract beyond terrorism.
This is a clear example of an attempt to negatively affect the fundamental rights of citizens, not the clear authority of Parliament, he said.
In the second type of restriction, the Al-Qaeda said Order, Lord Hope, one of the five men, Mohammed al-Ghabra, denied the fundamental right to a legal challenge to the controls, saying it was unfair.

More than 150 people have contacted the consumer publication Which? Tips alleged ill were on the offensive against illegal file sharing.
ACS: law has to hold thousands of letters to people who have illegally downloaded material sent and gives them a chance to settle through the payment of nearly 500.
What? said he was approached by some – including a 78-year-old accused of downloading pornography – they have no knowledge of the alleged offenses.
ACS: Law stated that his methods were correct.
The London-based company said it would soon send letters.
But in recent letters sent two weeks ago have brought a new ten people, they had been unjustly accused.
One said: What? My 78-year-old father received a letter yesterday demanding legislation ACS 500 for a porn archive accused of downloading.
He does not know what the BitTorrent file-sharing networks, or it is certainly not doing themselves or anything else for permission to use your PC to do so given. What? The computer concerned that too many innocent people wrongly accused will.
Consumers are innocent actions threatened for infringement of copyright, not only, but would not know how to undertake, said Matt Bain, technology editor of Which?
Many will be shocked to pay rather than the stress of a court battle will be, he added.
He advises people who believe they have been misled consistently rejected and, if possible, to provide physical evidence, where they were when the violation was committed.
He advised them to contact you with details of your case.
Andrew Crossley, ACS: Right, said that some cases were withdrawn, but he declined to give figures.
He said he is convinced that the method used to detect the IP address for the illegal downloading is infallible.
We are pleased that our information is absolutely correct, he said.
He said the letter does not accuse individuals.
We explained that there is a breach, but can not the holder of the account that said you have made, he said.
He advised those who believe they were unjustly accused to seek specialist advice or technical advice for the office of citizen.
But he warned that people should not only think that the letter and say they will do.
Mr Crossley said that most of the contents of the shared music illegally are only 10% of adult content.
He told the BBC that the company has a number of clients he represented, including the German company had DigiProtect content.
The company, based in Frankfurt and marked benefit his company with the slogan piracy.
He has represented a number of rights holders in the past, including the German techno band Scooter.
It keeps track of the suspected hijackers of the notification of the individual Internet Protocol or IP address of users on Internet file-sharing networks connected.
Then ask the Supreme Court on broadband business to customer-contact details need to comply with these guidelines.

A human rights body has asked the European Commission, which is used to assess the legality of software to analyze file-sharing in the United Kingdom.
This software is CView and used by the service provider Virgin Media to determine the safety of the law on illegal traffic in the network.
The EC has said that control the use of software, following a complaint from Privacy International.
Virgin Media, however, that the software has not eliminated the risk to privacy.
Privacy International has concerns about the software, developed by Detica control.
Uses so-called deep packet inspection, which means that one can recognize a real file name, making it possible to understand what content is legal and what is not.
According to Alexander Hanff, head of the ethics network to Privacy International, the current use of such software in the laws of the United Kingdom.
Regulation of investigatory powers Act (RIPA) interception of communications is a crime, regardless of what you have with the data, he said.
Mr Hanff said he would file a criminal complaint if Virgin Media CView used.
He said the software is similar to the advertising technology company Phorm on individual web application was developed for surveillance in targeted ads.
Studies of technology in the UK were put on hold while the EC considers how it was tested.
The British government is in the process of drafting legislation that share illegal files can be identified and dropped from the network was able to see.
However, this software is not on this project, said a spokesman for Virgin Media.
I’ve never had to collect identity. This is not an answer, said Asam Ahmad.
Instead, the software used to determine how much network traffic is illegal.
We want to understand what we are sharing files illegally can be reduced. This will tell us things like the names of the best sets ten songs, and the rate of legal to illegal, said Ahmad.
Virgin Media is launching its own music service.
Mr. Ahmad Said had no date set yet for the procedure, but told the BBC that the movement in three peer-to-peer known to monitor the illegal trade and legal software, Gnutella, BitTorrent and eDonkey.
He admitted that may have 40% of the data of the Virgin of clients with their media checked and confirmed that he could not inform these plans have been before.
He acknowledged that this could not justify the network is technically difficult to perform deep inspection technology based packet IP addresses to identify the individual, but stressed it was the program at this time.
No These contracts have been established, and where to locate people or judge them, a role for content providers, not us, he said.
Virgin Media is an ongoing education campaign, including letters to those who have been identified as a download of illegal content on the network.
Andrew Ferguson, editor of the news site Think Broadband broadband, said the study could be a double-edged sword.
If Virgin can create a basis for P2P traffic illegal , ie they can see how the law applies, and perhaps best plan to the letter of the transmission side of things, he said.
However, it appears that Virgin Media not only has to look deep packet inspection – BT, for years, he said.
You can do exactly what we do Virgin, he said.

The whole world’s eyes on Apple technology, which is preparing to unveil
its latest creation in the midst of a maelstrom of speculation that it is
a Tablet PC.
At 1800 GMT Wednesday that the company hold a news conference in San
Francisco to the launch of new products.
Media and technology blogs have been in overdrive, amid rumors that the
product is a less compressed keyboard.
For weeks on a series of photos and videos were released to illustrate the
new scheme.
You never know what could not Apple in a particular Wednesday is not in
January, said Mike Gartenberg, Vice President of Strategy and analysis of
the market research firm Interpret.
One thing is certain, we know that we will see a device type or class of
device. The money is a safe product is a tablet or slate computer that
traditionally closes the gap between smartphones and laptops.
The question is why Apple has here a different view of this category?
It must be something that one reason, of course, and not something that
lives between a phone and a computer, Mr Gartenberg said to exist at the
BBC.
So far the Tablet market with an average income of around 950 million U.S.
dollars (597M) is considered.
But many observers believe Apple will do for this industry sector what the
iPod is not for MP3 players.
Apple said it sold 21m iPods last quarter, while conforming to a decline
of 8% over the previous year, the company holds 70% market share.
Our base scenario assumes that the new tablet four million parts, 3.2
billion U.S. dollars (2.1 billion euros) in revenues and earnings of 82
cents per share, added in 2010, but we see upside potential six million
units said Morgan Stanley analyst Katy Huberty.
Interpr tation M. Gartenberg convenu.
Apple is not building products for tens of thousands of fans. These are
the products of the construction of ten million customers, he said.
Speculation about what raged this mythical device, sometimes called Jesus
Tablet actually is.
The closest students of these trends are as blogs and fan sites of Apple,
which investigated the alleged leak and assert patents from various
manufacturers and people who have real photographs.
Apple’s an incredible job keeping this thing is done in secret, said Paul
Miller, editor of the technology blog Engadget, the BBC said.
We followed eight years of rumors and speculation about the Apple tablet
device, and here we are on the eve of the announcement is great and
virtually no concrete information about this, Miller said.
Among the rumors is that the gadget will be a gaming device, a reader e-
iPhone killer or very large.
Multi-touch is the center of everything.
Apple is on the lookout for a new paradigm for UI, which replaces the
fingers of the mouse and keyboard, said Leander Kahney, author and
founder Steve CultofMac.com brain, a book on Apple, Steve Jobs.
It is a very important step in computing in general. The tablet is
expected that with the Internet via Wi-Fi and 3G cellular networks.

predominantly Muslim country has deteriorated, and large communities of
ethnic Chinese and native Indian.

incidents, he told reporters.

Please do not resolve the public nor the parties, to undermine the
country’s security, he added.

nearby neighborhood, said the leader of the mosque prayer, Abdullah
Hazelaihi.
The police chief confirmed the incident and said the two were at a nearby
mosque, Al-Imam al Tirmidhi left.
Although, said Zulkifli Mohamad, senior Sri Sentosa mosque on the
outskirts of Kuala Lumpur, two men arrived at the morning prayers with
blood two pigs heads in plastic bags on the floor.
We believe this is an attempt to exacerbate the damage to some people,
tensions, Zulkifli told The Associated Press.
Nobody was in the series of attacks in various houses of worship of the
decision of December 31, the court allowed the wounded Muslims speak of
God, as a translation of God.
Police arrested 19 people in connection with the attacks so far.
Correspondents say some of the majority of the Muslim community in
Malaysia is suspected that seeks to encourage Christians to the word
Allah, Muslims who convert to Christianity.
Analysts say the hard-line difference in Malay Malay Muslim groups are
happy to confirm its leadership in a political evolution can.
The government has appealed against the decision, unlike countries such as
Indonesia, Egypt and Syria, where Christian minorities freely to use the
Arabic word for God that are found.
