Ahead of this Saturday’s No Kings protests, the Los Angeles Police Department has filed an emergency motion asking a judge to lift an injunction that restricts the use of force against the press.

The injunction creates “undefined and operationally impracticable standards that expose the city and its officers to contempt for good-faith actions taken to protect the public,” according to lawyers for the city, including City Attorney Hydee Feldstein Soto, and the police department.
