Supreme Court Will Hear Oral Argument Over Trump’s Fed Firing

The court let Federal Reserve member Lisa Cook stay in office pending oral argument in January.

The Supreme Court issued an order on Oct. 1 indicating that it would hear oral argument over Federal Reserve Board of Governors member Lisa Cook’s challenge to President Donald Trump’s attempt to fire her.

“The application for stay presented to The Chief Justice and by him referred to the Court is deferred pending oral argument in January 2026,” an order from the court reads. “The Clerk is directed to establish a briefing schedule for amici curiae and any supplemental briefs responding to amici.”

Trump had asked the court to intervene after a lower court blocked his firing. The Supreme Court’s Oct. 1 order effectively allows Cook to remain in her position.

This case and another, Trump v. Slaughter, could alter how much control presidents have in determining who holds key positions within the executive branch. In both cases, questions have arisen over a longstanding Supreme Court precedent known as Humphrey’s Executor v. United States, which said Congress can set certain limits on the president’s removal power.

The Supreme Court said last month that it expects to hear arguments over whether to overturn that precedent in December, when it considers Trump v. Slaughter. That case focuses on Trump’s attempt to fire a member of the Federal Trade Commission.
