A federal judge in San Francisco will hear arguments on whether military troops deployed this summer by the Trump administration to Los Angeles violated a federal law that bars troops from conducting law enforcement duties within the country.

A federal judge in San Francisco seemed unconvinced after a three-day trial that the continued deployment of federalized members of California’s National Guard — who were originally deployed to Los Angeles in response to protests against President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda — is lawful.

ABC7 News reporter Monica Madden was in the courtroom as a federal judge heard arguments on whether the Trump administration violated federal law when it deployed National Guard soldiers to LA following June immigration raid protests.
