Washington — The Supreme Court on Monday ruled that former presidents are entitled to immunity from federal prosecution for official acts, a landmark decision that has major ramifications for former President Donald Trump.
The ruling dealt primarily with special counsel Jack Smith’s case against Trump in Washington, D.C. While the court’s 6-3 decision made some specific determinations about what conduct alleged in Smith’s indictment cannot be brought to trial, the majority left much of the decision-making up to U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan, who is overseeing that case. Chutkan will have to decide whether much of the alleged conduct in the indictment was “official” or “unofficial” in nature.
