Highlights
  • A federal judge in San Francisco indefinitely barred the Trump administration from firing federal employees during the government shutdown, saying the cuts were likely arbitrary and politically motivated.
  • Federal agencies are enjoined from issuing layoff notices or acting on notices issued since the government shut down Oct. 1, covering Cabinet departments and about two dozen independent agencies.
  • Illston believes the evidence will show the mass firings were illegal and in excess of authority, supporting unions’ challenge to the layoffs.
