US District Judge Timothy Kelly ordered the Justice Department to respond by Tuesday, September 22, to the request by CNN, MS NOW and Politico for a temporary restraining order against the White House ban on the three outlets, and scheduled a videoconference hearing for Wednesday, September 23, at 3:30 p.m.

Eastern Time, according to CNBC. The outlets are seeking the immediate restoration of the permanent access credentials revoked on September 18, when they were barred from the White House complex; the suit claims violations of the First Amendment and of due process.
