"Partial Dismissal in Trump Lawsuit Over Capitol Officer Sicknick's Death"

TL;DR Summary
A judge has dismissed most claims against former President Donald Trump in a lawsuit filed by the partner of late Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, who died following the January 6 Capitol riots. The lawsuit, which sought damages for wrongful death and other claims, was partially dismissed due to procedural issues and the nature of the negligence claims. However, the judge allowed the case to proceed on grounds of a survival act claim and a conspiracy to violate civil rights claim. Trump's immunity defense was also rejected, with the case potentially moving towards the Supreme Court.
