(MENAFN- AsiaNet News)

President Donald Trump reportedly urged a federal judge on Friday to reject Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook's request for an injunction that would prevent him from firing her.

According to a CNBC report, the Fed stated that it would not take a position on Cook's lawsuit challenging her removal but requested a“prompt ruling” to resolve the dispute in a separate filing.

The report stated that both filings were submitted approximately two hours before the scheduled hearing on Cook's request for a temporary restraining order, which would block her dismissal, in a U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C.
