Former US President Donald Trump's legal team has sought to halt a 2020 obstruction case, citing presidential immunity. The team has also filed an emergency motion to stop a gag order issued by Judge Tanya Chutkan in an election subversion case. The lawyers have been attacking Judge Arthur Engoron's law clerk, leading to an extension of the gag order to include Trump's attorneys. The team's source for the attack was reportedly a Breitbart article. The DC Circuit Court was asked to stay the gag order and Trump suggested he might take the fight to the Supreme Court. The gag order prohibits Trump from making statements about potential witnesses or disparaging comments about the prosecutors involved in the federal election interference case against him. However, an appeals court has temporarily paused the gag order and scheduled a Nov. 20 oral argument. Eric Trump has also testified in the case. The New York judge presiding over the trial has directed Trump's lawyers to stop referring to his law clerk and other staffers, citing a threat of actual violence, and issued a limited gag order.
