In 2016, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit ruled that Microsoft did not have to comply with a warrant for records stored outside of the US, and the government appealed (SCOUTS Blog, Reuters). The Supreme Court is expected to hand down its decision in its current term, but if it does not, the question will resolve as no.
