The Judiciary isn't anxious to push things to the brink because they understand the ramifications for democracy if they push Trump to the point of disobeying a direct Order of the US Supreme Court. The judiciary is very aware the Judiciary is a Constitutional Paper Tiger with no effective enforcement mechanism against the other two branches of government.
OTOH, if the Judiciary gives the appearance of attempting to avoid a showdown, that will likely only embolden Trump and increase the chance he tosses democracy aside by telling SCOTUS to 'go jump in a lake'.
It will be interesting to see if Judge Sorokin threatens criminal contempt on Monday.
