A coalition of environmental and tribal organizations has filed an emergency injunction to stop the proposed land transfer between SpaceX and the federal government.
The groups argue that transferring federal land to SpaceX without adequate review could violate environmental and cultural‑protection rights and therefore requires judicial scrutiny.
They contend that proceeding without a court ruling would set a dangerous precedent and request a temporary restraining order to pause the transaction until the legality is determined.
The injunction asks the court to first decide whether the land swap complies with applicable law before any further steps are taken.
The court will rule on the injunction, thereby determining how the land‑swap process will proceed.
