TL;DR Summary
Judge Tanya S. Chutkan declined to hold prosecutors in contempt in the federal case accusing former President Donald J. Trump of plotting to subvert the 2020 election, after they continued filing motions and turning over evidence despite the case being put on hold. The judge ordered both sides not to file any more "substantive" motions without first asking for permission, reflecting a larger fight over the timing of the case and whether it will go to trial as scheduled in March.
