A U.S. appeals court on June 12 allowed President Donald Trump to maintain his deployment of National Guard troops in Los Angeles amid protests over stepped-up immigration enforcement, temporarily pausing a lower court's ruling blocking the mobilization.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals' decision does not mean that the court will ultimately agree with Trump, but it means he will maintain command of the guard for now.

On June 12, San Francisco-based U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer found that Trump's deployment of the Guard was unlawful. Breyer had ordered the National Guard to return to the control of California Governor Gavin Newsom, who sued to restrict its activity.
