The lawsuit accuses Trump of illegally profiting off the presidency through his luxury Washington hotel.

Without ruling on the contents of the case, a federal appeals court reversed a decision made last year by three of its judges who had closed the matter based on procedural issues. The decision means that the proceedings brought by the attorneys general in Washington and the neighbouring state of Maryland, which accuse the president of violating the “emoluments clause” of the US constitution, can continue for now.

The plaintiffs say the clause is violated when foreign delegations patronise the Trump International Hotel, near the White House, in an effort to curry favour with the president.
