Former President Trump filed a motion seeking<\/a> to halt activity in his election interference case after filing a notice of appeal Thursday seeking to override a decision from a federal judge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump’s back-to-back motions ask Judge\u00a0Tanya Chutkan,\u00a0who is overseeing the Jan. 6 case, to pause \u201call district court proceedings in this case\u201d as a higher court considers Trump\u2019s appeal of the motion to toss the entire case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last week, Judge Chutkan rejected Trump’s effort to have the federal case dismissed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also tossed Trump\u2019s contention that the indictment violated his due process rights and that the alleged conduct was protected by the First Amendment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cWhatever immunities a sitting President may enjoy, the United States has only one Chief Executive at a time, and that position does not confer a lifelong \u2018get-out-of-jail-free\u2019 pass, Former Presidents enjoy no special conditions on their federal criminal liability,\u201d Chutkan wrote in the 48-page ruling.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

While Trump’s legal argument will come in a later filing, Trump\u2019s attorneys bashed Chutkan\u2019s decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThe Court incorrectly denied President Trump\u2019s claim of Presidential immunity on the ground that such immunity does not extend to federal criminal prosecution for a President\u2019s official acts,\u201d they wrote.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
