What happened?

  1. Reyes's 70-page opinion requires "no less than ten business days' written advance notice" before closing or making any irreversible modification to parts of the park during the litigation, NPR reported.
  2. Trump said the renovations will still start next month even after the injunction was extended, according to NPR and NBC4 Washington.

The order bars cutting, substantial pruning or damage to trees without a court order and requires ten business days' written advance notice before closures or irreversible modifications to the park.
