Coronavirus Pandemic: Court and Justices

coronavirus pandemic: The court's major clash over presidential accountability could affect the 2020 presidential campaign, especially if a high court ruling leads to the release of personal financial information before Election Day, according to CTV. The justices heard arguments in two cases by telephone Tuesday that stretched into the early afternoon. But the court seemed less clear about exactly how to handle subpoenas from Congress and the Manhattan district attorney for Trump's tax, bank and financial records. The court, where six justices are age 65 or older, has been meeting by phone because of the coronavirus pandemic. The justices will meet by phone before the end of the week to take a preliminary vote on how those cases should come out. There was no apparent consensus about whether to ratify lower court rulings that the subpoenas to Trump's accountant and banks are valid and should be enforced. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
