Judge Tanya Chutkan grants dismissal of Donald Trump's election subversion case
Washington, D.C. Judge Tanya Chutkan has agreed to dismiss Donald Trump's election subversion charges, MSNBC's Adam Klasfeld posted on the social media site BlueSky.
Special counsel Jack Smith asked that the cases be dismissed on Monday afternoon "without prejudice," meaning that "a new indictment could theoretically be returned after Trump's term (with an argument for tolling of the statute of limitation)," said Lawfare's Roger Parloff also on BlueSky.
"Accordingly, the court will GRANT the Government's Motion to Dismiss ... and DISMISS the Superseding Indictment without prejudice," the judge wrote in the ruling.
