A former prosecutor has stated that the U.S. Supreme Court is creating a space in its calendar to address cases about President Trump this term.

According to Joyce Vance, this would include the former president’s election fraud lawsuit in Washington, D.C., as well as challenges to the outcome of the 2024 election if Trump is defeated.

Four counts of Trump allegedly conspiring to rig the 2020 election in the lead-up to the January 6, 2021, riot at the US Capitol were brought against him in a Washington, D.C., court. He has declared that the prosecution is a political witch hunt and entered a not-guilty plea.

In her Sunday post on her legal blog, Civil Discourse, Vance reviewed the court’s impending cases and noted that there is a void in the Supreme Court’s calendar to accommodate Trump appeals, Newsweek reported.

“The Court’s docket has been lighter than usual—they’re saving room. Even with the addition of fifteen cases late last week following the Court’s long conference, where it evaluated around 2,000 petitions and other motions, there is still room on the Court’s calendar for what they must know is coming,” Vance added.

Vance wrote that she believes that possible Trump challenges include “round two of the presidential immunity appeal he hopes will prevent him from facing a jury in Washington, D.C.”

That relates to the Washington, D.C., election fraud case of Trump. On July 1, the Supreme Court declared that the Republican candidate for president was immune from prosecution in most cases. Prosecutor Jack Smith consequently prepared a brand-new indictment and made his case against Trump public on October 2.

Vance wrote that she thinks either party will probably file a Supreme Court challenge, depending on how Judge Tanya Chutkan in Washington, D.C., handles the fresh indictment.

Vance added that other potential Trump-related Supreme Court challenges include “an appeal from the Eleventh Circuit’s decision on Judge Cannon’s decision to dismiss the classified documents prosecution.”

This is related to Judge Aileen Cannon’s ruling in July, which dismissed all charges against Trump for allegedly storing official documents at his Florida resort, Mar-a-Lago.

On Monday, Newsweek sent emails requesting comments from Cannon’s office and Trump’s counsel.

Prosecutor Smith was improperly appointed as special counsel in the case, according to Judge Cannon, who declared the appointment to be void. He is appealing her ruling in front of a Florida federal appeals court.

Following his departure from the White House in January 2021, Trump was charged on 40 federal counts in Cannon’s court regarding his alleged handling of classified materials taken from his Mar-a-Lago residence in Palm Beach, Florida.

In addition, he was charged with impeding federal agents’ attempts to recover them. In addition to pleading not guilty, the Republican presidential candidate claimed that the prosecution was part of a political witch hunt.

Additionally, according to Vance, “the inevitable post-election challenges Trump will bring if he loses” are a concern.
