Law Firm That Sued Fox News Now Takes on Trump
In response to a Trump executive order deemed retaliatory, Susman Godfrey, the firm behind a successful $787 million lawsuit against Fox News, filed suit. The executive order bars the firm from federal contracts, revokes employee security clearances, and prohibits access to federal buildings. This action, described as unconstitutional and discriminatory, is viewed as part of a broader Trump administration campaign targeting law firms challenging his administration. Susman Godfrey’s lawsuit, supported by Munger Tolles & Olson, challenges the president’s actions and asserts the right of lawyers to represent clients without fear of reprisal.
