The United States Court of Appeals has issued a ruling blocking Trump’s request to dismiss Lisa Cook, Director of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, from her position. The court’s decision centers on Cook’s argument that she was denied adequate procedural safeguards during the dismissal process. The appellate court has determined that Cook’s claim of unfair treatment constitutes a strong likelihood of success. This ruling does not address the core of the dispute – Cook’s allegations of unlawful termination. The court’s decision effectively upholds the Federal Reserve’s authority regarding its leadership selection.
