Yesterday, President Trump filed a motion to request a stay on upcoming deadlines in his classified docs case. His legal team cited the Supreme Court’s ruling on presidential immunity.
And today, Judge Aileen Cannon just granted that request. Several deadlines in the Mar-a-Lago case will be paused.
Looks like SCOTUS’ ruling is already working in Trump’s favor.

From NBC News:
U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon on Saturday granted former President Donald Trump’s request for further briefing on the issue of presidential immunity in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case and delayed certain deadlines.
Cannon’s order marks the latest fallout from the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity decision on Monday, which ruled that Trump has immunity from prosecution for some conduct as president in the federal election interference case.
