The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit is expediting former President Trump’s appeal on a district court denial of his motion to dismiss his case based on presidential immunity.
President Trump has until Dec. 23 to file his opening brief, and prosecutors have until Dec. 30 to file a response. The defense can file any reply to that by Jan. 2, 2024.
