“As you know as a former Supreme Court clerk, this matter will go to the Chief Justice. – First, Chief Justice Roberts. He may make this decision to stay. That possibility is very low. He will apply this to all his colleagues and they will have to make a decision. In my view, there are good reasons to grant a stay on procedural issues,” Turley said.

“The only complication here is separating it from the merits of the immunity issue. Some judges will think that Donald Trump's immunity claim is too broad,” he concluded. “But when it comes to procedural questions, I think the former president is right.” – I think this is an unfair process. ”

A lower court in Washington, D.C., ruled Tuesday that Trump is immune from prosecution in a case brought by special counsel Jack Smith. In response to the ruling, the court gave Trump and his legal team until Monday to ask the Supreme Court to intervene before issuing the order. The trial on Mr. Smith's indictment on criminal conduct charges related to the 2020 election reversal has been postponed from its originally scheduled date of March 4, after President Trump recently requested that the order be suspended pending appeal. It was decided that it would be done.
