The Trump administration is asking the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to reinstate executive orders aimed at penalizing four major law firms, Perkins Coie, Jenner & Block, WilmerHale, and Susman Godfrey. Hearings are taking place in Washington on Thursday before a three-judge panel, two appointed by Democrats and one by a Republican. Lower federal courts in Washington previously struck down the orders as unconstitutional, citing free-speech protections and other provisions. The measures sought to bar firm lawyers from federal buildings and cancel U.S. government contracts held by their clients. Former Solicitor General Paul Clement represents the firms against the Justice Department.
