Special counsel Jack Smith’s office opposed former President Donald Trump’s motion to dismiss the Jan. 6-related case against him, filing the motion late Thursday.
Mr. Smith had been appointed special counsel last November to investigate the events of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol breach and related crimes, and has already brought cases against more than 1,100 citizens. President Trump has been charged with four felony counts for allegedly interfering with the 2020 elections through his actions to challenge the results.
