The Justice Department is asking for more time to review the landmark Supreme Court ruling that granted former President Donald Trump substantial immunity from prosecution, further deferring the federal election interference case.
Lawyers for Special Counsel Jack Smith wrote U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan ahead of a Friday deadline, to request more time to develop “an informed proposal” about next steps in the four-count felony case against Trump.
The prosecutors said they have been consulting with other parts of the Justice Department but need more time to finalize their position. They proposed filing an update with the court by Aug. 30.

Take your time guys, no rush. I’m sure you all have lots of other important things going on.
Maybe it just genuinely is a bunch of work to try to reconcile their case with “the president can do whatever he wants and is above the law”?
