Trump's legal team appeals order for Pence to testify in Jan. 6 probe.

Former President Donald Trump's lawyers are appealing an order for former Vice President Mike Pence to testify before the special counsel investigating Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Pence was subpoenaed in February to testify in the investigation, but he argued he should be shielded from having to testify on certain aspects related to his role as president of the Senate overseeing the certification of the 2020 election on Jan. 6, 2021. Trump has previously sought to assert executive privilege in an attempt to block Pence's testimony, but the chief judge for the D.C. district court rejected his team's arguments and ordered Pence to testify and provide records to special counsel Jack Smith.
