Dozens of cases have been filed against the Trump administration since day one, challenging everything from government efficiency (DOGE) to executive orders on the natural citizenship and fundraising of agencies providing child gender transitions.

Some cases include key issues of executive power that are likely to be resolved by the Supreme Court in the end. Some have already reached the judiciary based on the emergency as the administration argued that lower court judges blocked aspects of President Donald Trump’s agenda.

Below are some of the biggest issues that go through the court.

The actions taken by Doge and Musk teams to reduce government spending were the main targets of the lawsuit.

The results of these tasks are mixed. On Monday, a district court judge looked at Doge’s “unusual secrets.” Found That doge is probably It is subject to public records requests.

Judge Tanya Chukkan, the judge appointed by Obama who oversaw Trump’s January 6th last year, handed the Trump administration a key victory. Reduction On February 18, multiple Doge agencies will request temporary blocking access to data systems to allow requests from the Democratic attorney general.

“The court recognizes that Doge’s unpredictable actions have resulted in considerable uncertainty and confusion for the plaintiffs and many of their agencies and residents,” writes Chutkan. “However, the “possibility” that the defendant could act in a way that would injure the plaintiff is “not sufficient.”

But Doge employees are still limited From accessing the Treasury payment system under a February ruling from a federal judge in New York. (Related: Lawyers who are already trying to use Trump’s speech in Congress as “new evidence” for Doge)

Spending is frozen

One of the first emergency applications from the Trump administration was something the Supreme Court had to face.

Biden-appointed federal judge Amir Ali Found On Monday, the Trump administration issued a preliminary injunction blocking the implementation of the freeze, saying that a freeze on foreign aid spending was illegal.

“As well as assert the constitutional authority to decide how to use the allocated funds, it also deprives the Congress of its exclusive authority to decide whether or not to use the funds first.” I wrote it.

The Supreme Court previously refused to suspend Ali’s previous temporary restraining order. The administration has called for the payment of a $2 billion foreign aid fund. Judge Samuel Alito, an opposition added by Justice Clarence Thomas, Attorney General Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, said he was “stubborn” to not call for “judicial hubrism.”

“As the country’s Supreme Court, we have an obligation to ensure that the powers entrusted to federal judges by the Constitution are not abused,” writes Alito.

Judge John McConnell in another lawsuit filed by the Democratic attorney general who challenged the Trump administration’s froze federal funding. held March 6th Freeze “It fundamentally undermines the clear constitutional role of each branch of the government.”

“Regardless of its authority to control Congressional spending, Congress imposed a categorical delegation on the expenditures of required funds,” Obama’s appointee McConnell wrote in his decision.

Obama-appointed Judge Beryl Howell in Thursday’s decision held The removal of Gwynne Wilcox from the National Labor Relations Commission was illegal.

Hampton Dillinger, former director of the Special Adviser’s Office, received the most attention for his case. He was suspended on March 6 after the DC Court of Appeals granted that he had allowed him to be removed. Dellinger noted that he is unlikely to succeed in the Supreme Court.

DC circuit panel was written on an opinion The government issued on Monday that “has demonstrated enough that Derlinger exercises sufficient powers to at least conflict with the president’s instructions.”

After Dellinger removed his challenge, the Supreme Court dismissed the matter as MOOT. The Trump administration had asked judicial authorities to consider the issue in an emergency after the district court ordered Derlinger to reinstate his office.

The Trump administration has expressed its intention to insist that the Supreme Court precedent would limit the president’s ban on elimination of federal employees. Humphrey’s Enforcer vs. America should be overturned.

Another lawsuit filed by Democrats argues that Trump’s executive order claiming control over government agencies could endanger the independence the party relies on in the Federal Election Commission (FEC).
