A federal judge has paused several court deadlines in former President Trump's classified documents case in Florida to consider the impact of a recent Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity. Trump's legal team requested a partial stay of proceedings. The Supreme Court ruled that former presidents have substantial immunity from prosecution for official acts while in office but not for unofficial acts. Judge Aileen Cannon has allowed two weeks for both sides to prepare briefs on this matter. Trump faces multiple felony charges related to the possession of classified materials.
