Trump's Election Win Halts Legal Proceedings in 2020 Case

A judge has canceled court deadlines in Donald Trump's 2020 election interference case following his presidential victory, as the Justice Department evaluates how to proceed given the policy that sitting presidents cannot be prosecuted. Special Counsel Jack Smith had charged Trump with attempting to overturn the 2020 election results and mishandling classified documents. The Supreme Court previously ruled that former presidents have broad immunity, complicating the prosecution. The Justice Department must propose a course of action by December 2, while the classified documents case remains stalled.
