肯尼迪中心董事会周五向联邦上诉法院申请临时叫停一项法官命令,该命令要求从该机构的标识和官方材料中移除提及特朗普总统名字的内容,而周五傍晚晚些时候,印有特朗普名字的标识仍清晰可见于建筑外墙。

在提交给美国哥伦比亚特区巡回上诉法院的紧急动议中,董事会同时请求暂缓上诉审理和立即实施行政暂缓令,辩称在上诉法官审查这一争议之前,不应对建筑进行实体改动。

该 filing 要求法院在周五晚7点前发布行政暂缓令。

福克斯新闻数字频道周五下午观察到,截至美国东部时间下午5:30,特朗普的名字仍悬挂在肯尼迪中心外墙上,工作人员已在部分标识周围搭建了脚手架。

周五早些时候,美国地区法官克里斯托弗·库珀驳回了董事会关于在上诉期间暂停执行其裁决的请求,认定被告既未证明上诉成功的可能性,也未证明会遭受不可弥补的损害。

肯尼迪中心董事会在紧急申请中辩称,移除并可能重新安装标识将使其产生无法收回的成本,前提是其最终在上诉中胜诉。

董事会还辩称,移除特朗普的名字可能会损害筹款工作,并在上诉成功后如果中心再次更名的话造成公众混淆。该动议进一步辩称,此案提出了关于董事会权限以及俄亥俄州民主党众议员乔伊斯·比蒂是否有资格提起诉讼的重大问题。

最新的申请源于库珀5月29日的裁决,该裁决称国会而非肯尼迪中心董事会对该机构的名称拥有管辖权。法官命令从实体标识、数字材料和官方品牌中移除特朗普的名字,并指示中心在14天内遵守规定。

在一份冗长的意见书中,库珀写道,肯尼迪中心的治理法规“明确无误”地表明,该机构应以约翰·F·肯尼迪总统的名字命名,且不能通过董事会单方面行动正式更名。

法官得出结论称,国会赋予了肯尼迪中心现有的名称,且只有国会才能更改该名称。

该裁决源于比蒂提起的诉讼,她是肯尼迪中心董事会的当然成员。

在5月29日的裁决发布后,肯尼迪中心公共关系副总裁罗马·达拉维表示,董事会打算提起上诉。

“我们将仔细审查这项裁决,但现实依然是——该中心急需进行重大修复——就连原告也承认这一点,”达拉维当时告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。

“特朗普总统已筹得2.57亿美元并经国会批准,资金已到位,我们将继续致力于通过一切合法途径,确保‘特朗普肯尼迪中心’恢复为所有美国人都能欣赏的国家文化地标。”

比蒂对该裁决表示赞赏,她在一份声明中称肯尼迪中心“属于美国人民,而非唐纳德·特朗普”。

去年12月,经董事会全票通过,特朗普的名字被添加到该场馆。随后不久,印有总统名字的标识被安装在现有的肯尼迪中心字样上方。

截至周五下午,上诉法院尚未就该紧急申请公开作出裁决,特朗普的名字是否会在法院命令的合规截止日期后继续保留仍未确定。

该紧急上诉请求哥伦比亚特区巡回法院在审议董事会对库珀裁决的全面上诉期间,维持现状。

白宫和肯尼迪中心的一名代表未立即回应福克斯新闻数字频道的置评请求。

The Kennedy Center board on Friday asked a federal appeals court to temporarily block a judge’s order requiring references to President Donald Trump’s name to be removed from the institution’s signage and official materials, as signage bearing Trump’s name remained visible on the building’s facade late Friday afternoon.

In an emergency motion filed with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, the board requested both a stay pending appeal and an immediate administrative stay, arguing that physical changes to the building should not occur before appellate judges review the dispute.

The filing asks the court to issue an administrative stay by 7 p.m. Friday.

Fox News Digital observed Friday afternoon that Trump’s name remained mounted on the Kennedy Center facade as of 5:30 p.m. ET, with scaffolding erected around portions of the signage.

Earlier Friday, U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper denied the board’s request to pause enforcement of his ruling while the appeal proceeds, finding that the defendants had not demonstrated either a likelihood of success on appeal or irreparable harm.

OBAMA-APPOINTED JUDGE WITH TIES TO ANTI-TRUMP CONSPIRACY THEORY HIT WITH MISCONDUCT COMPLAINT

The Kennedy Center board argued in its emergency filing that removing and potentially reinstalling signage would force it to incur costs that could not be recovered if it ultimately prevails on appeal.

The board also argued that removing Trump’s name could impair fundraising efforts and create public confusion if the Center’s name changes again following a successful appeal. The motion further contends that the case raises significant questions regarding the board’s authority and whether Rep. Joyce Beatty, D-Ohio, had standing to bring the lawsuit.

The latest filing stems from Cooper’s May 29 ruling that Congress, not the Kennedy Center board, has authority over the institution’s name. The judge ordered the removal of Trump’s name from physical signage, digital materials and official branding and directed the Center to comply within 14 days.

BOARD VOTES KENNEDY CENTER TO BE RENAMED ‘TRUMP-KENNEDY CENTER,’ LEAVITT SAYS

In a lengthy opinion, Cooper wrote that the Kennedy Center’s governing statute “makes crystal clear” that the institution is to be named for President John F. Kennedy and cannot be formally renamed through unilateral board action.

The judge concluded that Congress gave the Kennedy Center its name and that only Congress can change it.

The ruling came in a lawsuit brought by Beatty, who serves as an ex officio member of the Kennedy Center board.

Following the May 29 decision, Kennedy Center Vice President of Public Relations Roma Daravi said the board intended to appeal.

“We will review the decision carefully though the reality remains — the Center requires an urgent and significant restoration — a truth that even the plaintiff acknowledges,” Daravi told Fox News Digital at the time.

“With $257 million secured by President Trump and approved by Congress, the resources are in place, and we remain committed to pursuing every lawful avenue to ensure the Trump Kennedy Center is restored as a national cultural landmark for all Americans to enjoy.”

Beatty praised the ruling, saying in a statement that the Kennedy Center “belongs to the American people, not to Donald Trump.”

Trump’s name was added to the venue in December after a unanimous vote of the board. Signage bearing the president’s name was installed above the existing Kennedy Center lettering shortly afterward.

As of Friday afternoon, the appeals court had not publicly ruled on the emergency request, leaving unresolved whether Trump’s name would remain in place beyond the court-ordered compliance deadline.

The emergency appeal asks the D.C. Circuit to preserve the status quo while it considers the board’s broader appeal of Cooper’s ruling.

The White House and a representative for the Kennedy Center did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
