A federal judge previously ruled in favor of Harvard University in a landmark affirmative action case involving allegations of discrimination against Asian American applicants. This ruling, which allowed Harvard to use race-conscious admissions policies, was later overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2023. Recently, the same judge granted an injunction supporting Harvard's new lawsuit challenging President Donald Trump's enforcement of civil rights laws. Critics have noted that this judge has a history of decisions favoring Harvard's admissions policies despite Supreme Court rebukes, and some accuse the university of forum shopping in its legal strategy.
