The US Supreme Court has opted not to decide immediately on whether former President Donald Trump is immune from prosecution for allegedly attempting to overturn the 2020 election. Trump's efforts to postpone his trial seem successful as the case will now progress through the appeals process. Special counsel Jack Smith sought an expedited resolution, but the court's unsigned order denied the petition without clarification. Trump, facing charges of election subversion, benefits procedurally from the delay, with the trial scheduled for March 4 in Washington, DC. District Judge Tanya Chutkan has paused the case during Trump's appeal.
