Washington:
The US Supreme Court on Tuesday blocked the order of the trump administration requiring the Trump administration to restore thousands of federal federal probational workers.
The Conservative-Bahul apex court said that non-profit organizations lacked legal status to bring a lawsuit to prevent large-scale firing to file a case filed by the non-profit organizations.
A District Judge William Alsup, a District Judge in California, last month ordered six federal agencies to resume 16,000 probationary workers who were placed as part of President Donald Trump’s push to reduce the size and scope of the government.
Alsup said that the justification for the “poor performance” given for large -scale firing was a “sham” and he fired the departments of Treasury, veteran cases, agriculture, defense, energy and interior so that he could be removed.
In a temporary victory for the Trump administration, the Supreme Court blocked Alsup’s order, while the case continues to be litigated.
In a 7-2 judgment, the court stated that the judge’s order “was based on the allegations of nine non-profit-organization plaintiffs in the case.
“But under the established law, those allegations are currently inadequate to support the standing of organizations,” it said.
Since returning to the Oval Office in January, Trump has taken an ax for the US government, cut the spending programs and firing more than two million employees on federal parole.
