Supreme Court to Hear Trump's Presidential Immunity Claim on April 25
March 6, 2024The U.S. Supreme Court is scheduled to hear Donald Trump's presidential immunity claim on April 25.
The case concerns Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 election results and involves assessing a lower court's rejection of his immunity argument.
Trump is the first former U.S. president to potentially face criminal charges and is currently involved in multiple legal battles.
The Supreme Court's ruling will influence not only Trump's case but also the charges against an individual linked to the Capitol attack.
The outcome could affect Trump's ability to disrupt ongoing prosecutions or issue pardons for federal crimes if he returns to office.
This hearing is part of a broader legal context where Trump faces other criminal cases, including mishandling classified documents in Florida.
