A federal appeals court overturned a ruling by a lower court, ruling on Sept. 13 that a lawsuit against President Donald Trump can proceed.

Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), a nonprofit watchdog started by former Hillary Clinton ally David Brock, filed a suit with three other plaintiffs against Trump, alleging he was violating the Constitution’s emoluments clauses by not putting all his business assets into a blind trust.
