The order said U.S. Justice Department lawyers must now ask judges to require plaintiffs to pay the government's costs and damages if it is forced to hold off on implementing a policy that is ultimately found to be lawful. The money would need to be posted up front as a bond, the order said.
“Federal courts should hold litigants accountable for their misrepresentations and ill-granted injunctions,“ Trump said in the executive order, accusing “activist organizations” of obtaining improper and overbroad injunctions.
Trump has suffered a series of setbacks in the cases but has also notched some wins in recent weeks.
In a case over Trump’s bid to freeze $3 trillion in federal loans, grants and financial assistance, U.S. District Judge Loren AliKhan said it would “defy logic” to “hold plaintiffs hostage” with a bond. AliKhan has blocked the freeze while she weighs the merits of the case.
Government lawyers have also asked for bond in a lawsuit over cuts to medical research grants and in another lawsuit over the funding freeze. Judges have yet to rule on those requests. (Reporting by Jack Queen in New York; Editing by Leigh Jones and Lincoln Feast.)
