The U.S. Supreme Court has announced the date it will schedule arguments in a case involving former President Donald Trump’s claims of immunity for actions he took while still in office that he now faces charges from that were filed by special counsel Jack Smith.

The case stems from an appeal Trump filed regarding Smith’s election interference charges. Oral arguments are scheduled for April 25.

The nation’s highest court announced last week it would hear the case and do so in an expedited manner. A ruling is expected by June, and until then, the case, which is being heard by U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan in Washington, D.C., will likely remain on hold.

Trump and his legal team requested the Supreme Court review the issue of presidential immunity, saying that “if the prosecution of a President is upheld, such prosecutions will recur and become increasingly common, ushering in destructive cycles of recrimination.”

“Criminal prosecution, with its greater stigma and more severe penalties, imposes a far greater ‘personal vulnerability’ on the President than any civil penalty,” the request states. “The threat of future criminal prosecution by a politically opposed Administration will overshadow every future President’s official acts — especially the most politically controversial decisions.”

Trump’s team previously argued in lower courts that presidents have absolute immunity, but legal experts have said the nation’s highest court is not likely to agree should that remain Trump’s arguments before the justices.

Trump’s filing states that the president’s “political opponents will seek to influence and control his or her decisions via effective extortion or blackmail with the threat, explicit or implicit, of indictment by a future, hostile Administration, for acts that do not warrant any such prosecution.”

Smith leveled charges against the former president that included conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, an attempt to obstruct an official proceeding, and conspiracy against rights. These charges originated from Smith’s probe into whether Trump played a role in the January 6 Capitol riot and any purported interference in the 2020 election outcome.

The charges were filed in August. Trump pleaded not guilty to all of them.
