    WTVR CBS 6
    The court granted a preliminary injunction blocking enforcement of Section 3(c) of Executive Order 13769 against individuals with Virginia residences or employment, or who attend educational institutions in Virginia. The court found that Virginia had standing to challenge the order and was likely to succeed on the merits of its claims, and that without injunctive relief the state would suffer irreparable harm. The injunction prohibits enforcement of the order's provisions against lawful permanent residents, those with immigrant or nonimmigrant visas, and students or workers with valid visas who have ties to Virginia.
