A federal judge on Tuesday afternoon denied Governor Newsom’s request for an ex parte Temporary Restraining Order against President Trump.
As previously reported, California Governor Gavin Newsom on Tuesday requested an ex parte Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) against President Trump over the deployment of National Guard troops to downtown Los Angeles.
Thousands of anti-ICE rioters surrounded a federal facility in downtown Los Angeles on Monday.
Approximately 700 U.S. Marines were mobilized in response to the violent riots in Los Angeles.
This came after President Trump deployed 2,000 National Guard troops to help quell the riots.
Governor Newsom announced Monday that he is filing a lawsuit against President Trump, alleging a constitutional violation.
On Tuesday, Newsom told the court he needed the TRO by 1 p.m. PST today.
“They must be stopped immediately,” Newsom said in his request for an emergency restraining order.
Later Tuesday, Judge Charles Breyer—a Clinton appointee and brother of retired Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer—denied Newsom’s request for an immediate restraining order but scheduled a hearing for Thursday.
