Select any row to open that order's file. REVOKED and AMENDED come from the National Archives tables of later actions on orders, which cover January 8, 1937 to January 19, 2017; orders outside that window show no status, which does not mean they were left unchanged.
Cases naming the office of president
Federal cases whose caption names the President of the United States as a party and that the record shows before the court while this person held the office. The date on each line is the date of that record, not necessarily the day the case was filed. Being named in an official-capacity case is not a finding about the person, and nothing here says who won. Personal matters are left out entirely.
