This is AP News Minute.

President Donald Trump¹ welcomed Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to the White House Monday. It's their first meeting, and personal chemistry as much as policy could determine the direction of future relations.

The Supreme² Court is allowing the Trump administration to temporarily go forward with a limited version of its ban on travel from six mostly Muslim countries. The court won't hear full arguments in the case until October.

The family of Philando Castile has settled a lawsuit³ against St. Anthony, Minnesota for nearly 3 million dollars. The deal was announced less than two weeks after an officer was acquitted⁴ in Castile's death.

And it was 20 years ago today that Harry⁵ Potter Apparated into the land of Muggles. Fans in London celebrated⁶ the anniversary of the publication of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone."

I'm Matt Friedman, the Associated Press with AP News Minute.
