A federal judge asks if the deployment of the National Guard in Los Angeles violates the Poscomitus Act

A federal judge on Friday said Trump administration Military deployment in Los Angeles violates the rallies’ Comittatas Act, which prohibits troops from conducting civil law enforcement in US soil.

This comes as California’s challenge to President Donald Trump’s military deployment to respond to anti-ice protests in Los Angeles returned to federal court in San Francisco on Friday for a brief hearing. It followed the Court of Appeals, which handed the Trump administration victory in the case, and the Ninth Circuit Appeal Panel allowed the Ninth Circuit to maintain control of the National Guard forces the president sent to the riots.

US District Judge Charles Breyer did not publish Additional arbitration However, they sought briefings from both sides by noon Monday on whether the federal department violated the Posse Comitatus Act.

Democrat California Gov. Gavin Newsom said in his complaint that “violation of the Posse Comittatus Act is imminent,” but last week Breyer was delayed in view of the allegations.

Vice President of JD Vance traveled Los Angeles To meet with the troops deployed on Friday, the court said Trump’s reasons to send federal troops were “legal” and would do so again if necessary.

“The President is not going to send the National Guard because it is unnecessary if you enforce your own laws, whether in every city, every community, big or small, and if you are protecting federal law enforcement,” Vance told reporters.

National Guard forces have accompanied federal agents in immigrant raids against anti-ice demonstrations, and it is the first time Marines have detained a civilian since deploying to Los Angeles on the first day they were deployed to protect federal buildings.

Breyer discovered that Trump acted illegally when he deployed the troops despite opposition from Newsom. However, the appellant’s decision halted the judge’s temporary restraining order.

On Friday, Breyer asked his attorney whether he or the appeal court would retain primary jurisdiction and grant an injunction under the Class Comitutus Act.

California demanded a preliminary injunction returning control of the Los Angeles military. In Los Angeles, the protests have settled back in Newsmu as recent protests return.

Trump argued that the military was necessary to restore order, but Newsom said their presence on the streets escalated tensions and wasted resources.

Breyer said Trump has stepped over his legal authority, but he noted that he allows the president to control the state guard only when he is in “a danger of rebellion or rebellion.”

“The protests in Los Angeles are far below the “rebellion,” Breyer said.

The administration argued that the courts could not recertify the president’s decision. The appeals group ruled that the president did not have unchecked powers to seize control of the state’s National Guard, but said in this case the administration had provided sufficient evidence to show reasons for federalizing the military.

The California State Guard will remain under federal control, at least for now, as the lawsuit progresses.

This is the first federal deployment of the state National Guard without the permission of the governor since 1965, when troops were sent to protect civil rights marchers.
