On Wednesday, the Supreme Court agreed to hear former President Donald Trump’s claim of presidential immunity arising out of the election interference case brought against him by Special Counsel Jack Smith.
Earlier in February, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals held that Trump was not immune from prosecution in that case. In its ruling, the D.C. Circuit wrote:
“For the purpose of this criminal case, former President Trump has become citizen Trump, with all of the defenses of any other criminal defendant” and that “any executive immunity that may have protected him while he served as President no longer protects him against this prosecution.”
