"Trump Asserts Presidential Immunity in Jan. 6 Criminal Case Hearing"

TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump confirmed he will attend a court hearing on Tuesday to appeal criminal charges against him, claiming he is entitled to presidential immunity for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election. The appeals court will consider whether to throw out the charges, which include obstruction and conspiracy, after a U.S. District Judge rejected Trump's argument. The outcome of the appeal will determine the timing of Trump's trial, with the possibility of further appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court. Trump faces multiple legal cases related to his post-election actions and has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
