Following the Supreme Court’s Order granting Cert. in the Trump “complete immunity” case, Business Insider interviewed several legal experts regarding the implications of such an Order.

In his comments, Professor Doron Kalir made three points: First, unlike some court watchers who predicted that the Court may not take this case, it was quite clear that the Court would not pass on the opportunity to rule on this momentous, first-of-its-kind case, which raises, for the first time, several fascinating constitutional issues.

Second, from the way the Court defined the issue presented, it seems that – while not overruling both lower courts’ opinions, that Trump enjoys no immunity – the Court is poised to send a more nuanced, and narrow rulings regarding the presidential criminal immunity case. Such a ruling would be of help for future DOJ officials and Courts when coming to decide such cases.

And finally, the timeline that the Court has provided – Oral Arguments to be heard in the last week of April, coupled with its prior refusal to hear the case on an expedited basis – all but guarantees that Trump’s lawyers tried and true tactic of “delay, delay, delay” has worked again. There’s very little likelihood that this case will ever be heard by Judge Chatkan of the District Court prior to the 2024 Presidential elections.
