A statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee in Richmond, Virginia can be removed. 

The judge's ruling only allows it to be removed under the governor's order. 

This legal battle over the statue has been going on for months, since the governor asked for the statue to be taken down.

The statue was created in 1890.
