After a tumultuous twist of fate last week, the Trump administration has issued a mea culpa in one of the ongoing legal battles over the federal use of state National Guard troops to police American cities.

On Monday, in a letter motion addressed to the clerk of court for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, the U.S. Department of Justice admitted that multiple prior representations about federal deployments to Portland, Oregon, were "incorrect" and expressed "regret" for making numerous such "errors" in various court filings.

Early last week, a three-judge appellate panel, in a 2-1 ruling, stayed a temporary restraining order (TRO) issued by U.S. District Judge Karin Immergut, an appointee of President Donald Trump during his first term in office. That TRO barred "the federalization and deployment of Oregon National Guard service members."

Late last week, after the Beaver State alerted the court to those aforementioned errors, the full 9th Circuit administratively stayed the panel's own stay – "[w]ithout objection from the panel." While the full court was clear that its pause of the panel's pause was "not a reconsideration of the earlier stay order," the latest-in-time order came in response to Oregon's arguments regarding the now-admittedly incorrect numbers supplied by the federal government.
