Former President Donald Trump’s attorney was critical of special counsel Jack Smith’s urgency to obtain a Supreme Court ruling on whether the former president had immunity.
Last week, the special counsel’s office filed a petition with the U.S. high court, asking the justices to issue a quick ruling on whether President Trump had immunity in connection to election-related charges that Mr. Smith filed against the president earlier this year. The justices agreed to take the case, asking the former president’s team to submit arguments by next week.
