Judge halts East Potomac tree-cutting until 26 October

U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes halted tree-cutting at Washington, D.C.'s East Potomac golf course until 26 October, The Guardian reported. She ruled a day after a three-hour hearing on holiday-weekend work at the park. The government must give the court and plaintiffs three business days' written notice before any irreparable change to the course.
