The federal court system will no longer have the money to "sustain full, paid operations" of its 94 district and 13 circuit courts starting on Monday after exhausting the funds it was using for the first few weeks of the government shutdown.
Why it matters: The reduced operations will further bog down a court system already struggling to make it through its normal caseload and add to the hundreds of thousands of employees already furloughed or laid off by the Trump administration this year.
