Court Denies Trump's Gag Order Appeal in Election Meddling Case

The Supreme Court may be petitioned to review the order, marking its potential first intervention in Trump's criminal cases since his indictment.

Former President Donald Trump's appeal against a gag order in his election meddling case has been denied by the District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals.
The gag order restricts Trump from making statements intended to interfere with the case.
The Supreme Court may be petitioned to review the gag order, marking its first intervention in any of Trump's four criminal cases since his indictment.
Trump is accused of committing four felonies, including conspiring to overturn the 2020 election results, to which he has pleaded not guilty.
The Supreme Court is already under pressure to resolve the issue of whether Trump can be disqualified from holding public office under the 14th Amendment’s insurrection ban.
