NextImg:Judge temporarily blocks parts of 'chilling' Executive Order aimed at punishing Washington law firm

WASHINGTON — A federal judge has blocked President Donald Trump’s administration Wednesday from enforcing portions of an Executive Order designed to punish a prominent law firm linked to Democratic-funded opposition research during the 2016 presidential campaign into ties between the Republican candidate and Russia.

U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell in Washington granted a temporary restraining order sought by the firm, Perkins Coie, one day after it filed a federal lawsuit alleging it’s being illegally targeted because of its legal work. The judge said the president’s action sends a chilling message that lawyers can be punished for representing clients or advancing views unfavorable to the administration.
