The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit decisively denied ex President Donald Trump’s request on Wednesday to stop the removal of his name away from the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. The judges that heard the case said the request remain denied while his appeal proceeds.
The decision suggests the Kennedy Center intends to keep Trump’s name off its building for now. Previous decisions still overruled Trump’s effort to have the name restored. The case stays pending in the appeals process.
