Federal Judge Rebukes Justice Gorsuch Over Lower Court Criticism Amid Harvard Funding Dispute
A US District Judge in Boston, who recently blocked the Trump administration from cutting billions in federal research funding to Harvard University, has directly challenged Justice Neil Gorsuch’s recent criticisms of lower courts.
In a significant ruling delivered on Wednesday, US District Judge Allison Burroughs stated that Gorsuch’s remarks—where he admonished judges not to ‘defy’ the US Supreme Court—were ‘unhelpful and unnecessary.’ Justice Gorsuch, a member of the conservative majority that has largely sided with President Donald Trump’s administration this year, has been vocal about how lower courts are handling the influx of lawsuits targeting the executive branch.
