Former US President Donald Trump will likely not appear in court before the November election on charges related to his role in trying to overturn the 2020 election result, but the district judge will have to hold an evidentiary hearing, the judge said. juridical analyst from CNN, Elie Honig.
This is because the US Supreme Court decided this Monday (1st) to grant partial immunity to the former president, covering the acts he took during his time in the White House — as long as they were related to the federal administration and not private issues.
“There will not be a convicted felon tag hanging on Donald Trump in this case,” he said.
But Honig said the case could have a number of implications for other legal issues, including the Georgia election subversion case brought against the former president.
“They will also have to face this immunity problem,” Honig said.
