Donald Trump: Special counsel urges Supreme Court to reject immunity claim. Special counsel Jack Smith and his team have now filed a brief in which they call on the nine justices of the Supreme Court not to accept Trump's argument.
Trump's lawyers argue that he cannot be legally prosecuted for actions that were part of his duties as president. The outcome of the hearings, which begin on April 25, will likely determine whether there will be a trial against Trump. It remains unclear how much time there could be between the hearing and a possible start of the trial.
