Attorneys for former President Donald Trump filed a motion on Jan. 4 to compel prosecutors to show cause for why U.S. special counsel Jack Smith’s office shouldn’t be held in contempt over continuing to litigate a case in which a judge had ordered a stay.
“The Stay Order is clear, straightforward, and unambiguous. All substantive proceedings in this court are halted. Despite this clarity, the prosecutors began violating the stay almost immediately,” the motion reads.
