Federal judge temporarily halts California law that would force Trump to release tax returns to qualify for ballot
In a ruling Thursday, US District Court Judge Morrison England, Jr., said that California cannot force candidates to disclose their tax returns as outlined in the state's"Presidential Tax Transparency and Accountability Act." England said he would make his final ruling on the law before October 1. Even as the temporary injunction will likely face appeals from state officials, the decision marks a clear victory for Trump who sued California last month to challenge the state law.
While the law in question covers all presidential candidates, those in court Thursday acknowledged it was all aimed at person.Read More"The elephant in the room is President Trump's tax returns," England said.California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom signed the law in July.
