Former US President Donald Trump has urged a federal appeals court to throw out the federal election subversion criminal case in Washington, DC, arguing that he is protected under presidential immunity, CNN reported.
Trump wants the DC Circuit Court of Appeals to overturn a lower-court ruling rejecting his claims of immunity in special counsel Jack Smith`s election subversion case. The appeals panel is weighing Trump`s request, which the Supreme Court on Friday refused to take up on an expedited basis, as Smith requested.
