In a joint filing, Maryland Attorney General Brian Frosh and District of Columbia Attorney General Karl Racine asked all of the judges sitting on the Richmond, Virginia-based 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to rehear arguments.
Three of the court’s judges said in a July 10 decision that Frosh and Racine lacked legal standing to bring the lawsuit, which alleged that Trump’s continued ownership of the hotel is making him vulnerable to inducements, or “emoluments,” by foreign governments seeking to curry favor.
Frosh and Racine, both Democrats and frequent Trump critics, argued that they can properly bring the case because the jurisdictions they represent are being economically injured by Trump’s conduct.
