The Trump DOJ is arguing the lower courts are attempting to "seize executive power" in its challenge over its firing of former Head of the Special Counsel Office Hampton Dellinger.
"I am of the strong opinion that the devastating dissent written by Judge Katsas will strongly influence the current justices on the Supreme Court," Hans von Spakovsky, Senior Legal Fellow at the Heritage Foundation, told Fox News Digital.

The Justice Department filed an appeal to the Supreme Court in the case involving the firing of Hampton Dellinger, the head of the Special Counsel Office. Dellinger was fired from his role this month and shortly thereafter filed suit against the Trump administration, arguing that his termination was illegal and was "in direct conflict with nearly a century of precedent" delineating proper removal of independent agency officials.
