Judge temporarily blocks transfer of Miami land for Trump presidential library

Published October 14, 2025 9:16pm ET



A Florida judge ruled on Tuesday to temporarily block the transfer of land in downtown Miami to be used for President Donald Trump’s future presidential library.

The decision stems from a lawsuit filed last week by a Miami historian and racial activist who took issue with the Miami Dade College Board of Trustees’ Sept. 23 vote to hand over 2.63 acres of land worth more than $67 million to Florida. Marvin Dunn, the plaintiff, alleges the board didn’t provide sufficient notice for its meeting on the land transfer, arguing that the lack of public notice is in violation of state law.
