Prominent national security attorney Mark Zaid has filed a preliminary injunction request to restore his security clearance that the Trump administration revoked.

In late March, President Donald Trump rescinded the security clearance of Zaid and other well-known lawyers, politicians, and officials. Zaid sued the Trump administration in early May over this revocation, arguing the president’s executive order represented “dangerous, unconstitutional retaliation.”

Roughly two weeks later, Zaid is seeking to speed up the process for the reinstatement of his privileges.

“Mr. Zaid also requests a hearing on his application for a preliminary injunction no later than 21 days after this filing,” his attorneys wrote in the Wednesday filing. Zaid is being represented by several notable attorneys, including Abbe Lowell, known for previously representing Jared Kushner and Hunter Biden.

“We say enough of Trump taking away security clearances out of retaliation & with no basis,” attorney Norman Eisen added on social media, along with a photo of the motion.

Wednesday’s filing noted that Zaid’s legal counsel attempted to speak with the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia and the Department of Justice’s Federal Programs Branch, but to no avail. Included with the motion was a declaration from Zaid, in which he reiterated the harm the revocation has done to him; a declaration from a client of Zaid’s, who said Zaid’s “authorized access to classified information was a significant factor” in the decision to retain him; and a report from a former Defense Department official, stating that the revocation of Zaid’s security clearance was done “without due process.”
