Supreme Court Allows Trump White House Ballroom Construction
The White House is building a large ballroom that is expected to cost $400 million.
A court decision allowed the construction to continue.
A filing on Friday said the project was about 65% finished.
Sauer argued that stopping the work now would be unfair.
He called such a stoppage “construction-by-injunction.”
The filing said an order to stop work could begin on August 21.
Sauer also said stopping the project might be impossible because so much work had already been completed.
The report does not describe the other side’s arguments in detail.
Chief Justice Roberts allowed construction of a $400 million ballroom at the White House.
A Friday filing said the construction was approximately 65% complete.
Sauer argued that halting the project would amount to “construction-by-injunction.”
The filing said an injunction’s stop-work mandate was scheduled to take effect August 21.
Sauer argued stopping the work would be inequitable and potentially impossible at this stage.
