rdf:langString Leandra English, Deputy Director and Acting Director, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau v. Donald J. Trump, in his official capacity as President of the United States of America and John Michael Mulvaney, in his capacity as the person claiming to be the acting director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau

rdf:langString Leandra English v. Donald Trump, et al., No. 1:17-cv-02534 (D.D.C. 2017), was a lawsuit before the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. The plaintiff, Leandra English, alleged that the defendants, Donald Trump and Mick Mulvaney, violated 12 U.S.C. § 5491(b)(5)(B), a component of the Dodd–Frank Act of 2010, when President Trump appointed Mulvaney to be Acting Director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). English filed her lawsuit shortly after outgoing director Richard Cordray resigned, and she sought a temporary restraining order and a preliminary injunction to prevent Mulvaney from becoming the Acting Director of the CFPB. In July 2018, English resigned from the CFPB and voluntarily dismissed her lawsuit after Trump nominated Kathleen Kraninger to be the next Director.
