D.C. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson wrote in the Saturday filing that the court's ruling that Dellinger's firing was "unlawful" is consistent with Supreme Court precedent.
The Trump administration filed its notice of appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit shortly after Jackson's ruling.
