Court clears path for Mamdani pied-à-terre tax rollout in NYC

An appellate court lifts the stay on New York City's pied-à-terre luxury-home tax rollout, allowing the surcharge to proceed while the homeowners' challenge continues; a lower court had blocked the program, but the city argues that filing an appeal triggers an automatic stay and seeks permission to move forward, with Aug. 31 set for permanent relief and projected revenue of at least $500 million through FY 2028 from about 17,000 potentially affected properties.

Mamdani’s pied-a-terre tax returns to life as legal fight continues

An appellate court temporarily lifts the lower court’s restraining order, allowing City Hall to proceed with Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s pied-a-terre tax rollout while the full appeals panel reviews the case, keeping the tax in effect despite ongoing homeowner lawsuits that accuse the rollout of being botched and harassing. The city argues the pause would create headaches for taxpayers and threaten essential revenues, as the legal battle involving homeowners including Randy Mastro continues to unfold.

Trump Posts AI DronePort Image as Court Halts White House Ballroom

Trump posted AI-generated images of a fortified White House “DronePort” atop the ongoing 90,000-square-foot ballroom project after a federal appeals court ordered construction stop and congressional approval. The court described the East Wing demolition as an unprecedented “Executive self-help,” while Trump argued the setup would safeguard national security. The privately funded project, begun in Sept. 2025, faces further legal challenges and awaits Congressional input.

Missed underscore led to wrongful imprisonment: Nova Scotia man exonerated after 18 months

Brandon Klayme of Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, spent 18 months in prison after investigators chasing a Wisconsin child-exploitation case followed a misspelled Kik username—omitting one underscore—and wrongly identified him. The Nova Scotia Court of Appeal overturned his conviction, ruling the case should never have gone to trial and that the evidence was based on a simple username error.

Skyrim username mix-up leads to wrongful 18-month prison sentence, overturned

A Halifax man, Brandon Klayme, was convicted in 2023 of child‑luring and possession of child pornography based on a Kik username linked to a Skyrim dragon shout. Police pursued fus_ro_dah instead of the correct fus__ro_dah (with a double underscore), a mix-up that went unnoticed at trial. He served 18 months in prison before his lawyers uncovered the error, and an appeals court later overturned the conviction, ruling that he is factually innocent and should never have been charged.

Appeals Court Denies Stay in Kennedy Center Trump-Name Dispute

A federal appeals court denied a request to pause a lower-court order requiring the Kennedy Center to remove Donald Trump’s name from its facade, saying the center did not substantiate claims that keeping the name would protect donors or harm funding; with the name already removed and a tarp covering the front, the case remains on appeal as the center weighs renovation options.

Court clears path for Trump admin to replace Philadelphia slavery exhibit before Independence Day

A federal judge ordered the Trump administration to restore the slavery exhibit at Philadelphia's President’s House, but an appeals court subsequently cleared the way for its immediate replacement with new panels ahead of July 4; the Interior Department says the updates align with a presidential order to “restore truth” in history, while critics warn the changes would whitewash Washington’s enslavement of hundreds. Philadelphia had sued in January to preserve the memorial.

Appeals panel upholds Weinstein rape conviction, orders resentencing

An appellate court in California affirmed Harvey Weinstein’s rape conviction and ordered resentencing, rejecting defense claims of trial errors and upholding the use of certain evidence under rape-shield rules. The panel said Weinstein had a full opportunity to present his defense with other evidence, allowed testimony about other alleged assaults, and indicated the case would proceed to a new sentencing hearing. Weinstein said he will seek review by the California Supreme Court, while prosecutors declined to comment pending review.
