Published by The Dispute Index editorial teamPublished Updated
Overview
The National Park Service removed about 430 trees from East Potomac Golf Course in Washington on October 10, 2026, the morning after the government gave notice in a lawsuit by the DC Preservation League and two golfers that challenges the Trump administration's plans for the course. U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes barred further removal, finding the plaintiffs likely to show the agency did not comply with required environmental review. The government then moved to disqualify her for bias, and she denied the motion on October 18. The next day President Trump attacked the judge and said work would begin immediately.
Read the full background
The DC Preservation League and two golfers who play at East Potomac sued the Interior Department and the National Park Service on February 13, 2026. They say the administration is moving toward rebuilding the historic public course without the reviews federal law requires. For months Reyes declined their requests to restrain the government, and in May she told the government she wanted the plaintiffs to have notice before significant work.
At 4:55 p.m. on Friday, October 9, the government gave notice that tree removal would begin within 15 hours. In her October 13 opinion, Reyes wrote that the Interior Department approved the tree plan in five days, that about 430 healthy, non-invasive trees came down on October 10, and that a park official testified there was no urgency. The government says the work carries out a 2019 report on the course's historic setting and is separate from any plan to rebuild the course. Reyes noted that it came weeks after a June 28 post in which Trump said Interior would begin work on the course on September 1.
The government's October 16 motion said no reasonable observer could consider Reyes impartial, citing her conduct at the October 12 hearing and in other cases. Reyes denied it on October 18, pointing to months of hearings in which she had credited government counsel. That morning Trump announced a design by golf architect Tom Fazio and said restoration work would begin on November 15. The government says there is still no final agency action for a court to review. The evidentiary hearing on the plaintiffs' motion for a preliminary injunction concluded on October 19.

Claims

What's disputed
Disputed claim
DC Preservation League
The Park Service's tree removal at East Potomac Golf Course is a step in the administration's plan to rebuild the course and was carried out without the environmental review the National Environmental Policy Act requires.
What is disputed
The government says the tree management plan carries out a 2019 report on the course's historic setting and has nothing to do with any plan to rebuild the course. In granting a temporary restraining order on October 13, Reyes found the plaintiffs likely to succeed on their environmental review claim.

Disputed claim
U.S. Department of the Interior
Any redesign of East Potomac Golf Course is not final agency action that a court can review under the Administrative Procedure Act.
What is disputed
Reyes asked the government whether it kept this position after Trump announced a design for the course on October 18. The government said the plan is not final because the Park Service has not completed its review. In her October 13 opinion, Reyes found that the tree management plan is likely final agency action.

Disputed claim
U.S. Department of the Interior
Judge Ana Reyes cannot impartially decide the East Potomac case and must be disqualified.
What is disputed
The plaintiffs opposed the motion. Reyes denied it on October 18, writing that she had denied the plaintiffs' requests for relief nearly a dozen times before October 11 and that the government had not met its burden to show that her words and actions required disqualification.

Donald TrumpPresident of the United StatesDirectly involvedBefore this statement
Trump posted the message at 6:08 a.m. Eastern time on October 19, a day after he announced a design by Tom Fazio for a championship course on the site.
"The United States Department of Interior wants to take a terrible and very unsafe golf course, and make it into a great, safe, and prestigious golf course. They have an absolute right to do so. It’s as simple as that! The judge on the case is a crazed lunatic whose courthouse tapes will reveal, may be insane?"
Defended or excusedResponding to: The Park Service's tree removal at East Potomac Golf Course is a step in the administration's plan to rebuild the course and was carried out without the environmental review the National Environmental Policy Act requires.
Full statement and sources
Trump says the Interior Department has an absolute right to turn the course into a great and safe one, calls the judge a crazed lunatic, and says work is scheduled to begin immediately.
After the statement
He wrote that the golfer who brought the lawsuit has no standing, that Interior does not need an approval for the renovation and that work was scheduled to begin immediately.

The reference point is the Interior Department's October 2026 removal of trees at East Potomac Golf Course and its plans to rebuild the course. Trump says the department has "an absolute right to do so" and does not need an approval, so we labeled it Defended or excused. The closest competing label is Challenged the characterization; it loses because he endorses the work itself rather than disputing how it has been described.
This label describes the statement's response within the context above.
DC Preservation LeaguePlaintiff, through a filing by its attorneysDirectly involved Before this statement
The plaintiffs' opposition to the disqualification motion says the government had repeatedly told the court it would not take irreversible action at the course without giving notice.
"But, on October 10, Defendants did exactly what they said they would not do: they razed hundreds of trees on the golf course before Plaintiffs had an opportunity to challenge Defendants’ actions."
CondemnedResponding to: Judge Ana Reyes cannot impartially decide the East Potomac case and must be disqualified.
Full statement and sources
In opposing the disqualification motion, the plaintiffs say the government broke its promises to the court by cutting hundreds of trees before they could challenge the work.
After the statement
It says the government made a filing at 4:55 p.m. on the Friday of a holiday weekend, began cutting trees the next morning and offered no justification for the lack of notice.
Why this label?
The reference point is the Interior Department's October 2026 removal of trees at East Potomac Golf Course and its plans to rebuild the course. The plaintiffs say the government "did exactly what they said they would not do" and razed the trees before they could object, so we labeled it Condemned. The closest competing label is Challenged the characterization; it loses because the filing criticizes the removal itself.
This label describes the statement's response within the context above.
Ana C. ReyesU.S. district judge for the District of Columbia, presiding over the caseDirectly involvedBefore this statement
Reyes wrote that between February 13, when the case was filed, and October 11 she had not barred the government from taking any action at East Potomac, including tree removal.
"So what happened? Not sudden onset bias. Instead, the Government decided to remove over 500 healthy, non-invasive trees from East Potomac Golf Course."
Challenged the characterizationResponding to: Judge Ana Reyes cannot impartially decide the East Potomac case and must be disqualified.
Full statement and sources
Denying the government's motion to disqualify her, Reyes writes that what happened was not sudden bias but the government's decision to remove over 500 healthy, non-invasive trees from the course after giving notice late on a holiday Friday.
After the statement
She wrote that the government gave notice at 4:55 p.m. on the Friday of a holiday weekend, removed nearly 430 trees in one day, and had not met its burden to show that her actions and words required disqualification.

The reference point is the Interior Department's October 2026 removal of trees at East Potomac Golf Course and its plans to rebuild the course. Reyes disputes the government's account that her handling of the case reflects bias and attributes the conflict to the government's decision to remove the trees, so we labeled it Challenged the characterization. The closest competing label is Condemned; it loses because in this passage she describes the decision without expressly judging the removal.
This label describes the statement's response within the context above.
U.S. Department of the InteriorDefendant, through a motion signed by Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward Jr.Directly involvedBefore this statement
The motion says Reyes has hamstrung the government's legitimate attempts to maintain East Potomac Park from the outset. It lists remarks she made at the October 12 hearing, including her statement that the government could not be trusted, and says government counsel met her duty of candor to the court.
"Notably, all of this concerned the government’s performance of authorized tree maintenance in East Potomac Park."
Defended or excusedResponding to: Judge Ana Reyes cannot impartially decide the East Potomac case and must be disqualified.
Full statement and sources
In a motion asking Reyes to step aside, the government says her remarks and conduct toward its counsel at the October 12 hearing all concerned authorized tree maintenance at East Potomac Park.
After the statement
The motion asks that the case be moved to another judge and that the court release the audio of the October 12 hearing.
Why this label?
The reference point is the Interior Department's October 2026 removal of trees at East Potomac Golf Course and its plans to rebuild the course. The motion calls the work "authorized tree maintenance" and says the judge has hamstrung the government's "legitimate attempts to maintain East Potomac Park", so we labeled it Defended or excused. The closest competing label is Challenged the characterization; it loses because the motion presents the work as authorized and legitimate rather than disputing a label.
This label describes the statement's response within the context above.
- Ana C. ReyesU.S. district judge for the District of Columbia, presiding over the caseDirectly involved
Before this statement
Reyes summarized the government's position that the tree plan carries out a 2019 report on the course's historic setting and has nothing to do with plans to rebuild the course, noting that the trees came down weeks after Trump asked the Interior Department to cut down trees at the course.
"That asks rather a lot of coincidence. For now, Plaintiffs have satisfied the factors necessary for the Court to enter a temporary restraining order prohibiting further implementation of the TMP. They have shown a likelihood of success on jurisdiction: the individual plaintiffs regularly golf at East Potomac Golf Course, and the TMP is final agency action. They have also shown a likelihood of success on their National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) claim as NPS likely failed to comply with that statute’s procedural and “hard look” requirements."
CondemnedResponding to: The Park Service's tree removal at East Potomac Golf Course is a step in the administration's plan to rebuild the course and was carried out without the environmental review the National Environmental Policy Act requires.
Full statement and sources
In granting a temporary restraining order against further tree removal, Reyes rejects the government's suggestion that the timing of the removal was a coincidence and finds the plaintiffs likely to show the Park Service did not comply with the National Environmental Policy Act.
After the statement
She wrote that the felling of hundreds of healthy, non-invasive trees has no adequate remedy at law and that the government had professed no interest in removing the remaining trees urgently, citing a park official's testimony.
