The legal battle over the Trump administration's deployment of the National Guard in California heads to a federal appeals court on Tuesday.
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals will preside over a remote hearing regarding California's challenge to President Donald Trump's federalization of the state's National Guard troops amid protests over immigration enforcement in the Los Angeles area.
Last week, a federal judge in California issued a temporary restraining order that would have blocked Trump's deployment of the troops and returned control of the California National Guard to Gov. Gavin Newsom, who did not consent to the Guard's activation.
However, following an appeal by the Trump administration, a panel of three judges on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued an administrative stay of the lower court's order, dealing the Trump administration a temporary reprieve to what would have been a major reversal of its policy on the protests in Los Angeles. The three-judge panel -- made up of two judges nominated by Trump and one nominated by former President Joe Biden -- scheduled the hearing on the matter for Tuesday afternoon.
