The Department of Justice (DOJ) is reversing course on its previous decision to drop its bid to revive President Donald Trump’s executive orders targeting several major law firms, according to a court filing.

The DOJ filed a motion to the U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington on March 3 asking to withdraw its March 2 motion to voluntarily dismiss its appeals of lower court rulings that had sided with four law firms.
