On November 25, local time, US Special Attorney Jack Smith submitted a motion to dismiss an appeal against President-elect Trump's improper handling of confidential documents. Additionally, Smith said that the appeal against two other defendants, Walter De Nota and Carlos de Oliveira, in this case will continue. “The appeal against the other two defendants will continue because, unlike defendant Trump, the principle of temporary immunity did not apply to them,” he wrote in the document. On the same day, Jack Smith also said that he will drop charges against President-elect Trump for allegedly interfering in the 2020 US election and will seek dismissal of the case in court documents submitted to the judge on the grounds that “the current president should not face criminal prosecution” has been the policy position of the US Department of Justice for decades.
