Former President Donald Trump's legal team and special counsel Jack Smith will appear before U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan to discuss the proposed path forward in the 2020 election-related case.
Washington — Lawyers for former President Donald Trump and special counsel Jack Smith are returning to U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan's courtroom Thursday for the first time since she regained control of the 2020 election-related case following the Supreme Court's landmark ruling on presidential immunity.
Last week, in advance of Thursday's hearing, Smith unsealed a superseding indictment against Trump removing the conduct that Roberts said was covered by presidential immunity. The former president still faces the same four federal counts — including conspiracy to defraud the U.S. — in a charging document that describes an alleged plot to subvert the results of the 2020 presidential election. Prosecutors said they made changes to adhere to the Supreme Court's decision.
