Appeals court in San Francisco to hear arguments on National Guard deployment in Los Angeles
Briefly

A federal appeals court will hear arguments regarding the Trump administration's deployment of National Guard troops in California amidst immigration protests. Governor Gavin Newsom's lawsuit contends the deployment is illegal and breaches state sovereignty. A San Francisco judge previously deemed the deployment as exceeding presidential authority under Title 10, which restricts National Guard usage to defined circumstances. The administration argues the troops are necessary for order and protection. Protests are anticipated outside the court as stakeholders await the panel's decision.
U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer ruled the deployment of the National Guard was illegal, exceeding Trump’s statutory authority during protests over immigration raids.
Governor Gavin Newsom’s lawsuit against Trump claimed the National Guard's deployment inflamed tensions and violated state sovereignty, labeling the actions as 'illegal and immoral.'
