The judge releases Trump Order to the Perkins Coie law firm

Washington – A federal judge fired President Donald Trump's executive regulation against the Perkins Coie law firm in a blasty opinion, which described the president's efforts as “unprecedented attack” on the US justice system.

The US district judge Beryl Howell has issued a permanent injunction that was borne by the enforcement of a part of Trump's command of March, who focused on representing the Democratic President of Hillary Clinton 2016 and his work with the billionaired donor George Soros.

“No American president has previously issued executive commands such as the law firm in question in this complaint with adverse measures that are to be carried out by all executive branch authorities, but in the purpose and effects this action draws from a game book that is as old as Shakespeare wrote:” The first thing we do, we kill all Lawyers “.

“The importance of independent lawyers for the guarantee of the fair and impartial judicial administration of the American judicial system has been recognized in this country since its foundation,” Howell wrote and referred to the decision of John Adams to represent eight British soldiers who are charged with the massacre in Boston.

She said Trump's command “violates the constitution and is therefore zero and void.”

The Ministry of Justice did not immediately answer a comment on Friday evening.

Trump's Executive Order Limited Perkins Coie employees Access to state buildings, revoke security checks in the company and ordered the head of all federal authorities to terminate contracts with the company and to rent the employees who worked there.

Trump's “Several History of the Submission of Public Attacks” on Perkin's Coie and “his promises during the 2024 campaign to react to his displeasure” if he further won that the executive regulation “for retaliation against the plaintiff for the representation of the company in political campaigns or retaliation measures in the areas of political campaigns or merger, that of President Trump, about the The deterioration of deterioration was asked was triggered.
