It was a Federal court ruling on the constitutionality of a provision in a Maryland State law. It could apply the the entire US, but likely each State with laws and provisions similar to Maryland would have to be challenged separately.

Some of the lawyer types on TFL can correct me but I'm pretty sure that's the gist of it.
