The Tennessee court system has issued a temporary order halting the deployment of the Tennessee National Guard to Memphis, Tennessee. This order was announced following a request from the city council to deploy troops for increased security. The deployment, initially planned for October, was temporarily suspended pending review by the court. The National Guard is currently reassigned to other areas of the state. The judge’s decision is based on concerns about potential disruption to ongoing legal proceedings and public order. Further details regarding the reasons for the halt are pending legal review.
