Bannon filed the emergency application for continued release with the Supreme Court on Friday.
This is his last option to stave off the start of his prison sentence, as it comes after an appeals court rejected his bid on Thursday.
His attorneys say it would be an even-handed approach to allow Bannon to remain on release while the appeals process plays out.
He also points out the timing, saying that the government is seeking to imprison Bannon for four months just ahead of the presidential election.
Bannon is currently expected to self-surrender on July 1st.
