On Friday, a federal judge ordered the leadership of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which was appointed by President Donald Trump to stop his campaign for dismantling the agency.
In a submission, judge Amy Berman Jackson stood on the side of the CFPB Employee Union, who passed the incumbent acting director Russell last month to prevent him from putting almost all employees of the supervisory authority. Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency were also involved in the efforts to dismiss employees.
“The accused may not terminate a CFPB employee, with the exception of the cause in connection with the performance or behavior of the individual employee. The accused do not expose a announcement to reduce the reduction in the reduction in CFPB employees,” said Berman.
The command is the latest example in which a federal judge resorted to the movements of the Trump administration in order to take federal employees and limp, unfavorable agencies.

“To ensure that the employees can carry out their legally required functions, the accused must either provide them with a fully equipped office space or the permission to work from a distance,” wrote Berman.
In the comprehensive document, Berman also said that the CFPB had to worry to ensure that the portal works of the consumer complaint and reacted to these symptoms. informed the CFPB that they reverse the contracts made by VOUGHT and ordered him to submit a report by April 4 that the edicts were confirmed.
She expressly said that the order for all CFPB leaders as well as “all other people who participate in the active concert or in them, such as the staff of the Ministry of Government Efficiency” were applied.
A spokesman for VOUGHT did not return an e -mail to find a comment.
“Can't look away”
In a separate, 112-page opinion, in which Musks cited social media post on February 7, “CFPB RIP”, Berman explained her justification to provide the union's request at an injunction.
“The court cannot look away or the CFPB will be completely dissolved and dismantled in about thirty days, long before this lawsuit has come to its conclusion,” she wrote.
The injunction “retains the existence of the agency up to this case in relation to the merits, the re -hiring and maintenance of the contracts of the agency, the workforce, data and the operating capacity as well as the protection and facilitation of the ability of the employees to carry out legally necessary activities”, she wrote.
