Trump related court cases

 Roll Call - A federal judge said Friday she would block planned mass firings at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.   Judge Amy Berman Jackson of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia said at a hearing Friday she was concerned that the Trump administration is not complying with a preliminary injunction she issued last month to keep the CFPB intact while the court considers a lawsuit against CFPB acting director Russ Vought accusing him of trying to hobble the agency, according to published reports.

Jackson said she will prevent the CFPB from slashing its workforce by roughly 88 percent as indicated by a notice from Vought to CFPB staff on Thursday. Vought reportedly intends to cut the agency’s staff from about 1,700 to 200.
