The latest news in Donald Trump’s four criminal cases, including why each is stalled, and what to watch for this week.
Donald Trump’s four criminal cases are all stalled. Some will soon start a slow crawl to possible resolution. Some won’t be moving for months.
We’ll take you through the latest in this week’s edition of the Trump Trial newsletter, including — new this week — why each indictment has been on pause.. That means that this Friday, the nation’s highest court will formally kick Trump’s D.C. election interference case back to the appeals court, which then will send it, either that day or the following Monday, to the trial judge, Tanya S. Chutkan.
Trump’s lawyers argued that some evidence from 2017 presented to the jury involved extensions of the then-president’s official duties. Prosecutors disputed that claim and argued that even if the judge agrees with Trump’s lawyers, there is “other overwhelming evidence of defendant’s guilt” that still justifies the verdict.
But technically, yes, the 11th Circuit has supervisory authority over the district judges in its jurisdiction, which includes Cannon’s courthouse. That means that the appeals judges could decide on their own to remove Cannon, according to Jeffrey M. Cohen, associate professor at Boston College Law School. But Cohen said that would be extremely rare.
