The Trump administration’s emercency motion requesting an immediate stay of a Washington federal court’s restraining order of President Trump’s immigration executive order has been denied.
BuzzFeed’s Chris Geidner was among the first to report the ruling by the Ninth District Court of Appeals:
The ruling means that a case filed by the State of Washington, which resulted in a nationwide halt to the Trump administration’s executive order regarding immigration and travel restrictions for individuals from or who have visited certain countries, will remain in effect until the administration can further argue its case before the court.
