Prosecutors in the Trump 2020 election case asked for more time to interpret the legal ramifications of the Supreme Court's decision on presidential immunity.
Washington — The judge overseeing the federal 2020 election-related prosecution of former President Donald Trump has agreed to postpone the first hearing in the case since the Supreme Court issued its landmark ruling on presidential immunity after prosecutors asked for more time to interpret the legal ramifications of the decision. Judge Tanya Chutkan wrote in a brief order that attorneys representing Trump and special counsel Jack Smith were to appear for a status conference on Sept.
Prosecutors alleged the former president worked to subvert the peaceful transfer of power through a pressure campaign at the state and federal levels that culminated in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack. The former president pleaded not guilty and denied wrongdoing. Last week, Chutkan regained control over the case after the appeals court remanded the case to the district court, in accordance with the Supreme Court ruling.
