District Judge Tanya Sue Chutkan has the flexibility to reschedule Donald Trump's DC elections trial, until an appeals court rules on Trump’s claim of absolute immunity.
Donald Trump’s fans paid for his revenge lawsuits, a private defamation case, his bail, and many more legal headaches. But they also paid to investigate his lawyers.
Lawyers for Donald Trump on Thursday filed papers to hold federal prosecutors in contempt of court, accusing them of ignoring a judge's order to pause proceedings in a 2020 election fraud case.
The former president’s lawyers sought to have Jack Smith and two deputies explain why they should not be held in contempt of court for taking new steps in the case after it was put on hold.
The request was the latest aggressive move in what has quickly turned into a legal slugfest between the defense and prosecution, underscoring how critical the issue of timing has become in the election subversion case.
