A federal judge in Illinois issued a temporary restraining order on Thursday evening blocking the Trump administration’s deployment of National Guard troops in the Chicago area, days after the president called up soldiers over the Democratic governor’s objection.

The judge, April M. Perry, a Biden appointee, said in court that “I have seen no credible evidence that there is a danger of a rebellion in the state of Illinois,” rejecting one of the administration’s stated reasons for the deployment.

Judge Perry’s decision came after a lengthy hearing in Federal District Court in downtown Chicago, about 13 miles from an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in the western suburbs where members of the Texas National Guard were spotted earlier on Thursday. In addition to the Texas troops sent to Illinois, the president also placed members of the Illinois National Guard under federal command.

Lawyers for the federal government described the Illinois mobilization as necessary for preserving the safety of federal agents, and argued that the president’s judgment in deploying the Guard was not reviewable by the court. The state attorney general’s office called the administration’s positions “startling, unbounded, limitless and not in accord with our system of ordered liberty.”

A lawyer for the Trump administration said in court that he objected to the temporary restraining order, and Judge Perry acknowledged that an appeal was likely. Officials with the Justice Department, the White House and the Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond to requests for comment on Thursday evening.

Judge Perry’s temporary restraining order is in effect for 14 days and says that federal officials are “temporarily enjoined from ordering the federalization and deployment of the National Guard of the United States within Illinois.” She indicated that the wording was intended to prevent officials from sending in troops from another state’s Guard. She declined a request by the administration to stay her ruling.
