The Supreme Court has just given President Trump a loss on his action to fire Federal employee Lisa Cook, refusing to act on an appeal that reinstated her.

The will hear arguments in January on this very case.

Here’s the news via AP:

The Supreme Court on Wednesday allowed Lisa Cook to remain as a Federal Reserve governor for now, declining to act on the Trump administration’s effort to immediately remove her from the central bank.

In a brief unsigned order, the high court said it would hear arguments in January over Republican President Donald Trump’s effort to force Cook off the Fed board.

The court will consider whether to block a lower-court ruling in Cook’s favor while her challenge to her firing by Trump continues.
