US District Judge James Boasberg says he is looking at whether "probable cause" exists to hold officials in contempt.

The comments come as a significant escalation in a standoff between the administration and the chief judge of the trial-level court in Washington, DC .

The case has emerged as one of the highest-profile and most contentious court battles of President Donald Trump ’s second term.

Attorneys for the Trump administration argue that Boasberg ’s oral command “did not amount to a binding injunction” Lawyers for the ACLU and Democracy Forward argue that the administration violated the court's orders.

They say the purpose of the judge's order was to keep individuals from being handed over to a foreign government.
