The White House urged a federal appeals court on Wednesday to hasten its review of President Trump's revised travel ban.
Politico first reported the expected federal appeal plan.
The Justice Department asked the Richmond-based 4th Circuit Court of Appeals to expedite overturning an injunction on the federal government.
U.S. District Judge Theodore Chuang issued the injunction earlier this month, preventing the Trump administration from executing its ban on issuing visas to individuals coming from six predominantly-Muslim countries.
