Justice Matters with Glenn Kirschner

What If Trump Violates Court Orders? The Law Says "The US Marshals SHALL Execute" Court Orders!

Mar 6, 2025

It seems like Donald Trump and his administration are inching closer to defying orders that have been issued by federal court judges. So what happens if a judge issues an order prohibiting the Trump administration from doing something and Trump flat out refuses to comply? The federal law (28 USC section 566(c)) provides that "the United States Marshals Service shall execute all lawful writs, process, and orders issued under the authority of the United States, and shall command all necessary assistance to execute its duties." Glenn discusses the role of the US Marshals Service (USMS) with a retired member of the USMS, Arthur Roderick, who served as an Assistant Director of the Marshals Service, about the law, the realities, and the practicalities of this legal requirement that the United States Marshals Service executes all federal court orders.
