Former President Donald Trump’s attorneys on Friday asked a Florida judge to partially stay his classified documents case, citing the recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling that the former president is immune from certain charges related to official acts.
In a filing with U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon, the former president’s attorneys arguing that the judge must halt most proceedings in the case until she can resolve his immunity defense. The lawyers proposed a briefing schedule that lasts until early September, or about two months before the November election, arguing that the immunity ruling impacts his classified records case.
