Domare beordrar att Trumps namn tas bort från Kennedy Center

En federal domare har slagit fast att president Donald Trumps namn måste tas bort från Kennedy Center i Washington D.C. Beslutet stoppar även planerna på att stänga anläggningen för renovering. Trump svarade med att instruera att tillsynen överförs till kongressen.

Den federala distriktsdomaren Christopher Cooper meddelade beslutet på fredagen. Han konstaterade att centerets stadgar tydligt föreskriver att anläggningen ska vara uppkallad efter president John F. Kennedy, och att endast kongressen kan ändra namnet. Beslutet innebär att all skyltning och alla referenser till ett Trump Kennedy Center måste tas bort inom 14 dagar.
