Former President Donald Trump is urging the Supreme Court to reverse a lower court ruling that rejected his claim of sweeping immunity from federal prosecution.
Washington — Former President Donald Trump urged the Supreme Court on Tuesday to find that former presidents are immune from criminal prosecution for acts taken while in office, arguing that the 'long history of not prosecuting' his predecessors demonstrates that the power to do so does not exist.'From 1789 to 2023, no former, or current, president faced criminal charges for his official acts — for good reason,' Trump's lawyers told the court.
In the New York case, in which Trump pleaded not guilty to charges he falsified business records, his attorneys asked a Manhattan judge to delay the trial until after the Supreme Court rules on whether he is shielded from criminal prosecution.In South Florida, Smith charged Trump with 40 counts related to his alleged mishandling of sensitive government documents after leaving the White House.
