A grand jury returned a superseding indictment Tuesday in former President Donald Trump’s 2020 election interference case.
The new indictment, which includes the same four charges as the original, was filed in response to the Supreme Court’s July ruling finding presidents have immunity from prosecution for official acts taken in office, according to prosecutors.
“The superseding indictment, which was presented to a new grand jury that had not previously heard evidence in this case, reflects the Government’s efforts to respect and implement the Supreme Court’s holdings and remand instructions in Trump v. United States,” special counsel Jack Smith wrote in a notice.
