U.S. Supreme Court
Jul. 9, 2024
Two cases, two shifts in power (Trump v. U.S.)
The remand trial will have to decide what were Trump’s unofficial acts and whether they constituted a crime or crimes. The case may not conclude before the next presidential inauguration on Jan. 20, 2025. If Trump is elected again, the case is over.

On July 1, 2024, the Supreme Court granted former President Trump immunity for his official acts but not for unofficial acts. It remains to be seen what constitutes his unofficial acts. Justice Roberts wrote the 6-3 decision.
