Trump administration takes Harvard $2.7B grant dispute to First Circuit amid ongoing DOJ legal battle
The Trump administration has appealed a ruling restoring $2.7 billion in federal research funding to Harvard University, escalating the dispute to the US Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. The original decision by District Judge Allison D. Burroughs found the funding freeze unconstitutional and retaliatory. Harvard has already received partial funds, and both sides are negotiating a potential $500 million settlement. Legal experts predict a challenging path for the administration in the ongoing DOJ legal battle.
