A federal judge has temporarily paused the case against Donald Trump, who faces charges for allegedly conspiring to overturn the 2020 election results. Special Counsel Jack Smith requested the delay due to Trump’s recent win in the presidential election, highlighting the Justice Department’s policy against prosecuting sitting presidents. Judge Tanya Chutkan granted the request without comment, allowing the government time to assess the legal implications. Meanwhile, Trump is dealing with multiple legal challenges, including state-level charges in New York and Georgia, as well as an overturned federal case regarding mishandling classified documents.
