Save the date — it’s the Oral Arguments in Hawaii’s 9th Circuit:
| 17-15589 | State of Hawaii v. Donald Trump – Appeal by the United States government of the district court’s preliminary injunction enjoining enforcement of provisions of Executive Order No. 13,780. [1:17-cv-00050-DKW-KSC] |

You can listen at the federal court site HERE, and CNN has been granted pool status to broadcast and distribute to other outlets.
Keep in mind that the Temporary Restraining Order was issued based on threshold that the Plaintiff’s would likely prevail on the merits, and conversely, that Trump would likely not prevail on the merits. Here’s the Hawaii federal court order being appealed:

Read it before you watch the hearing — note the high threshold for a Restraining Order — and note the discussion of likelihood of winning on the merits. This is important!
Also FYI, there was a request for a 9th Circuit en banc hearing which was not approved by the court.
Thus far in court, tRump’s been a loser — both of his Muslim ban Executive Orders, the Executive Order regarding fiduciary duty of financial planners, an Inspector General investigation of his pulling advertisements and outreach for Obamacare enrollment… Let’s keep this trend going.
Here’s my earlier post about this case:
