Trump Seeks Supreme Court Review of White House Ballroom Case

The Trump administration filed a petition for the U. S. Supreme Court to review the White House ballroom case, after legal analysts said the National Trust for Historic Preservation likely lacks standing to challenge the injunction, Fox News reported.

Earlier, a three-judge panel of the D. C. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a lower-court order that halted construction of a proposed $400 million ballroom in the former East Wing of the White House and gave the administration 14 days to seek Supreme Court review; the panel also ruled that the project could not proceed without congressional authorization.
