U.S. Cites Saturday Ruling Against 3 TikTok Users to Defend Ban
Bloomberg News
,(Bloomberg) -- The U.S. cited a Pennsylvania federal judge’s ruling Saturday against three TikTok users in arguing that TikTok’s request for a block on the government’s ban be denied.
TikTok’s Chinese owner, ByteDance Ltd., has sued the Trump administration in federal court in Washington and is seeking a temporary hold on its ban of the app, which is set to begin Sunday night. The judge in that case is holding a hearing Sunday morning at 9:30. The Justice Department filed papers Saturday invoking the Pennsylvania judge’s denial of a similar hold the TikTok users had requested.
