The Trump administration is asking the Supeme court to step into a dispute over massive firings of fedreal workers.
The administration wants the high court to block a federal judge's ruling that ordered rehiring of some 16 thousand probationary wokers across several agencies.
The judge found the firings did not follow federal law and demanded the administration immedately sent reinstatement offers.
In an emergency appeal, the administration says the judge did not have the authorities to order the rehiring, and it wants the high court to put his ruling on hold.
