TL;DR Summary

Special counsel Jack Smith urged the Supreme Court to allow the 2020 election interference case against former President Donald Trump to proceed to trial without further delay, as Trump's team seeks to pause the case while the court considers his immunity from prosecution for official acts. Prosecutors argue that the case has "unique national importance" and should not be delayed, while Trump's lawyers claim he is shielded from prosecution for acts within his official duties. The Supreme Court's decision could determine whether Trump stands trial this year in Washington or faces further delays.
