An influential federal court made the ruling on Tuesday that past American leader Donald Trump lacks insulation against possible legal procedures tied to the 2020 federal election scenario.

This judgment stemmed from the U.S. Court of Appeals - District of Columbia branch - after careful consideration of Trump's claim asserting invulnerability from legal action tied to his alleged role in the controversial 2020 election outcome. The court decided that the reasoning presented by the ex-President was insufficient to prevent the case from moving forward.

The court in their statement on Tuesday expressed its objective overview of the situation, taking into cognizance both the former President Trump’s claimed interest in executive immunity, and the pressing public interest in allowing the prosecution to run its due course. The court expressed: 'The public's interest and that of the Executive Branch in criminal accountability outbalances any prospective threats of stifling Presidential action or encouraging contentious litigation.'

In the legal sphere, it remains a topic for scrutiny whether past presidents can be prosecuted post-tenure for actions expressly carried out within the boundaries of the Oval Office in line with their official responsibilities. In this case, Trump stood his ground on two claims: that he was guarded by presidential immunity and that the case infringes upon a double jeopardy clause, citing his previous impeachment by the United States House of Representatives.
