Judge Strikes Down Trump Order on Law Firm

“A federal judge on Friday permanently blocked an executive order from President Trump targeting the law firm Perkins Coie, declaring it unconstitutional,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“The ruling from U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell is a decisive win for the law firm and likely to serve as a model for judges weighing cases brought by other firms targeted in similar orders.”

The judge says the law firms who resisted Trump “will be the models lauded when this period of American history is written.”
