Legal experts told a panel on July 10 that two recent Supreme Court decisions on presidential immunity and bureaucratic power will generate a great deal of work for lawyers and judges.

Panelists speaking at a Heritage Foundation event in Washington focused on court rulings about the extent of former President Donald Trump’s legal immunity in election interference cases and on the power of unelected agency officials to make regulations when a law is ambiguous.
