SCOTUS Denies Trump Request To Delay NY Subpoena For Tax Records

US

SCOTUSblog tweets: "After 4 months of inaction, SCOTUS in a one-sentence unsigned order declines Trump's request to further postpone enforcement of a Manhattan DA subpoena for his financial records. The order clears the way for a NY grand jury to obtain the records & review them in secret."

  • "SCOTUS declines to take up a pair of leftover cases from the 2020 election. They involved the authority of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court to extend the state's mail-in ballot deadline. Thomas, Alito and Gorsuch say the court should have granted review."
  • The former decision could mean an advance in the case brought by the Manhattan DA to investigate President Trump's tax returns for alleged hush-money paid via Trump's lawyer Michael Cohen to cover up supposed affairs (Trump denies the allegations).
  • The latter puts an end to the main legal challenge to the 2020 election result.
