Trump’s case sent back to trial court after Supreme Court ruling.

It’s been a whirlwind of legal developments surrounding former President Trump’s immunity claim in the federal election interference case. After the Supreme Court made a historic decision rejecting his immunity claim, the case has now been officially sent back for trial.

This is a significant step forward in the legal process. Just a month after the Supreme Court’s decision on July 1, the case has been formally remanded to the appeals court, which will then return it to Judge Tanya Chutkan for further proceedings.

The court’s decision to remand the case reads, “ORDERED, on the court’s own motion, that this case be remanded to the District Court for further proceedings consistent with the Supreme Court’s opinion.”

What can we expect next? Judge Chutkan is anticipated to establish a schedule for the involved parties to discuss how the SCOTUS ruling will apply in the ongoing prosecution. Open court hearings are on the horizon, during which the judge will evaluate the Special Counsel’s evidence’s admissibility in the trial.

Earlier, the Supreme Court ruled in Trump v. United States that a former president enjoys substantial immunity from prosecution for official acts conducted while in office, but not for unofficial acts.

In a 6-3 decision, the Court sent the matter back to a lower court without addressing whether Trump is immune from prosecution concerning actions related to efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. This ruling came shortly after a New York jury found Trump guilty on all counts of falsifying business records in the first degree following an investigation led by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.

Special Counsel Jack Smith had charged Trump with several offenses, including conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, and obstruction of justice. These charges stemmed from an investigation into Trump’s potential involvement in the January 6 Capitol riot and any alleged interference in the 2020 election.

Last summer, Trump pleaded not guilty to all charges.
