Donald Trump’s legal issues will be in the spotlight this week with important court dates in his civil and criminal cases. The Georgia election subversion case faces a motion deadline on Monday. A federal appeals court in Washington, DC, will hold a hearing on whether Trump has presidential immunity in the federal election subversion case. Trump plans to attend the hearing. The former president’s claims of working in his official capacity as president to ’ensure election integrity’ have been rejected by a lower court. Meanwhile, Republican primary debate participants Nikki Haley, Ron DeSantis, and Trump have their own strategies. Trump will skip the event and participate in a Fox News town hall instead. The judge in Trump’s New York civil fraud trial will hear closing arguments Thursday with hopes of issuing a ruling by the end of the month. Trump is expected to be present at the closing arguments. The New York attorney general is seeking more than $370 million from Trump and his co-defendants and aims to bar him from doing business in the state.
