The Trump administration had sued the court system, including 15 federal judges, over its rulings against his immigration agenda.
A United States court has tossed a lawsuit from President Donald Trump that accused every federal judge in the Maryland district court system of having “used and abused” their powers.
On Tuesday, District Judge Thomas Cullen, a Trump appointee, granted the Maryland judges’ request to have the case dismissed.
Cullen normally serves in the federal court system for the western district of Virginia, but since all 15 judges in Maryland’s district court system were named as defendants in the case, someone from outside the state had to be brought in to resolve the case.
The lawsuit was a highly unusual, broad-strokes attack on the federal judicial system in Maryland, where Trump’s immigration agenda has faced several high-profile setbacks.
