Supreme Court sends Trump immunity case back to lower court, dimming chance of trial before election

0
The Supreme Court has extended the delay in the Washington criminal case against Donald Trump on charges he plotted to overturn his 2020 presidential election loss. The historic 6-3 ruling by the justices stated that former presidents have absolute immunity from prosecution for their official acts and no immunity for unofficial acts. The outcome means additional delay before Trump could face trial in the case brought by special counsel Jack Smith.
