US Supreme Court to hear arguments in Trump bid to fire Fed's Cook; leaves her in post for now

(Reuters) -The U.S. Supreme Court said on Wednesday it will hear arguments in January over Donald Trump's attempt to remove Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, leaving her in the post for now and teeing up a major legal battle over the first-ever bid by a president to fire a Fed official as he challenges the central bank's independence.

The justices declined to immediately decide a Justice Department request to put on hold a judge's order temporarily blocking the Republican president from removing Cook, an appointee of Democratic former President Joe Biden. It deferred a resolution on that request until the justices hear oral arguments.

Washington-based U.S. District Judge Jia Cobb on September 9 ruled that Trump's claims that Cook committed mortgage fraud before taking office, which Cook denies, likely were not sufficient grounds for removal under the Federal Reserve Act.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit in a 2-1 ruling on September 15 denied the administration's request to put Cobb's order on hold.
