District Judge Ana Reyes ordered a halt after more than 500 trees were felled at East Potomac Golf Links, as Trump pledged to appeal and vowed to proceed with the November 15 renovation
US judge halts tree-cutting at Trump’s Washington golf course project after hundreds of trees were felled at East Potomac Golf Links.
A federal judge has agreed to extend an order blocking the Trump administration’s renovation plans for a century-old public golf course in the nation’s capital
At a hearing, the judge excoriated the government after workers cut down at least 400 trees over a holiday weekend with little notice to the plaintiffs.
The order comes in a legal fight over Trump’s renovation plan and requires the government to give notice before closing or altering the property.
