Former President Donald Trump’s election interference case is expected to resume with a status conference on Sept. 5 after months of delay related to his appeal based on presidential immunity.

Despite the Supreme Court issuing a landmark precedent in Trump v. United States in July, it’s likely the case will proceed with further debate about the scope of Trump’s immunity for acts taken roughly four years ago. A majority of the Supreme Court held that presidents enjoy certain levels of immunity for official acts.
