Peter Navarro, former Trump trade adviser, has filed an emergency request to the Supreme Court to avoid being imprisoned on Tuesday for contempt of Congress in relation to the Jan. 6 Capitol attack. Navarro argues that he should remain free while appealing his conviction, citing issues such as the invocation of executive privilege by Trump. However, a three-judge panel of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled against postponing his sentence, stating that his appeal does not present substantial questions likely to result in reversal or a reduced sentence.
