SUPREME COURT

The issue before the Supreme Court stemmed from Special Counsel Jack Smith's election interference case against former President Trump
The Supreme Court ruled Monday in Trump v. United States that a former president has substantial immunity from prosecution for official acts committed while in office, but not for unofficial acts.
In a 6-3 decision, the Court sent the matter back down to a lower court, as the justices did not apply the ruling to whether or not former President Trump is immune from prosecution regarding actions related to efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
"The President enjoys no immunity for his unofficial acts, and not everything the President does is official," Chief Justice John Roberts wrote for the majority.

The Supreme Court ruled Friday that the Justice Department improperly charged some of the people who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, a decision that could affect hundreds of cases—and potentially help former President Donald Trump.
The court said a Pennsylvania man who entered the Capitol building during the riot may have been improperly charged under an Enron-era obstruction of justice statute enacted in 2002 that makes it a crime to impede certain government proceedings.
