The Supreme Court of the United States has set April 25 for debates on the question of criminal immunity invoked by Donald Trump as former president. The country's highest court decided on February 28 to take up this issue, further postponing the federal trial of the ex-president for attempting to illegally reverse the 2020 election.

The presumptive Republican candidate for the November presidential election seeks through his multiple appeals to go to trial as late as possible, in any case after the vote. His trial for unlawful attempts to overturn the results of the election won by Democrat Joe Biden was initially scheduled to begin on March 4.
