☆ Trump doesn’t have presidential immunity from lawsuits over January 6, appeals court rules
  + stars: | 2023-12-01 | by ( Katelyn | Holmes Lybrand | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +3 min
Washington CNN —Former President Donald Trump isn’t immune from being held accountable in civil lawsuits related to the January 6, 2021, US Capitol riot in a long-awaited, consequential decision from the federal appeals court in Washington, DC. The decision arises out of lawsuits brought by Capitol Police officers and Democrats in Congress. The district court did find that Trump was protected by presidential immunity from the claim that he failed to stop to the riot, saying that he would be acting in his official presidential powers in that instance. Trump still will be able to contest the facts of the case as the lawsuits move forward. The appeals court said Trump also may be able to make more arguments around immunity before the January 6 lawsuits move into extensive evidence-gathering phases.

☆ Trump’s Loss on Civil Immunity Claim Spells Trouble for Him in Criminal Trial

The question of executive immunity in cases of criminal prosecution for a president has never been settled, and Trump’s interpretation of it is far from universally agreed upon. “When a first-term President opts to seek a second term, his campaign to win re-election is not an official presidential act,” wrote Chief Judge Sri Srinivasan of the D.C. “The Office of the Presidency as an institution is agnostic about who will occupy it next. And campaigning to gain that office is not an official act of the office.”A president, Srinavasan wrote in the 67-page opinion, “does not spend every minute of every day exercising official responsibilities. The opinion was joined by Judge Greg Katsas, who was appointed by Trump, and partly by Judge Judith Rogers, who was appointed by former President Bill Clinton.

☆ Trump loses appeal to block Pence's testimony in Jan 6 probe - CNN

April 26 (Reuters) - Former U.S. President Donald Trump has lost an appeal to block former Vice President Mike Pence from testifying in the special counsel probe into efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election, CNN reported on Wednesday. Earlier this month, Trump lawyers filed the appeal after a ruling related to the Justice Department investigation of efforts to undermine the election that Trump, a Republican, lost to Democrat Joe Biden. However, Pence disclosed that he would not appeal a judge's ruling that requires him to testify to a federal grand jury about conversations he had with Trump leading up to the deadly attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. A representative for Trump did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
