Trump Appeals Immunity Rejection, Seeks Delay in Federal Election Case

TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump is appealing a ruling that denied his claim of immunity from criminal prosecution in a case where he is accused of plotting to overturn the 2020 election results. Trump's lawyers filed a notice of appeal and requested a freeze on deadlines in the case while the appeals court considers the matter. The appeal is part of Trump's strategy to delay the criminal cases against him until after the 2024 presidential election. The rejection of Trump's immunity claim in a separate case suggests he faces an uphill battle, but the Supreme Court could potentially address the issue.
