Judge Mehta Rejects Trump Presidential Immunity Defense
Original: Trump Faces Major Legal Setback as Judge Mehta Rejects His Presidential Immunity Defense
Judge Amit Mehta has rejected Donald Trump's presidential immunity defense, delivering a significant legal setback to the former president. The ruling means Trump cannot claim immunity from prosecution over conduct related to his time in office, advancing the federal election interference case. Legal observers say the decision is a major blow to Trump's strategy of delaying proceedings until after the election.
Why now: A federal judge's rejection of a former president's immunity claim is an unprecedented legal development with major implications for the 2024 election.
