Special counsel Jack Smith requested the dismissal of the criminal case against President-elect Donald Trump regarding alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election. Smith cited a longstanding Department of Justice policy that bars the indictment or prosecution of sitting presidents, emphasizing this constitutional prohibition is categorical regardless of the crime's gravity. Trump's legal team did not oppose the dismissal, and U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan has yet to rule on the request. Smith is also expected to drop his appeal in a separate case involving Trump’s alleged mishandling of classified documents after a prior dismissal due to Smith’s supposedly illegitimate appointment. The dismissed election interference charges accused Trump of urging officials to replace Democratic electors with Republicans and obstructing Congress during the Jan. 6 Capitol attack. Trump argues his actions were part of his official duties, while Smith contends they were private efforts to maintain power. The case reflects broader questions about presidential immunity and the boundaries of official versus private acts.
