Judge Drops the Gavel in Big Trump Case – Major Decision Comes Down for Former
POTUS

Former President Donald Trump continues to fight multiple legal cases against
him. From efforts to remove him from the primary ballot in various states to
criminal and civil cases, he has his hands full in court.

One case that may not be getting much attention is a civil lawsuit filed against
Trump based on actions taken during the Jan. 6, 2021, event. The lawsuit was
filed by Capitol Police officer Sandra Garza alleging five counts of conspiracy
to violate civil rights, two counts of negligence per se based on Washington’s
anti-riot law, a wrongful death count, and a claim under the district’s Survival
Act.

What the plaintiffs didn’t expect was the Washington, D.C.-based judge to issue
a ruling that wrecked part of the lawsuit. Trump’s lawyers swayed the judge to
the point it hurt the plaintiff’s case.

> From the Washington Examiner:
> In the court filing, U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta agreed with the defendants
> that Garza “does not have the statutory standing to make such a claim” in the
> wrongful death count. Mehta cited precedent holding that Washington’s
> anti-riot law “cannot sustain a claim of negligence per se” to dismiss one of
> the counts.



Mehta dismissed the wrongful death and negligence per se counts. Trump and Jan.
6 rioters Julian Khater and George Tanios were included in the lawsuit related
to the death of Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick.

Trump still isn’t out of the water in the case who claims he is immune to
lawsuits related to his actions on Jan. 6. Two court decisions in December
established a pathway for civil lawsuits against Trump related to the event. The
U.S. Court of Appeals cleared the way for multiple lawsuits against Trump,
including the case with Garza.

“In Blassingame v. Trump … this court held that former President Donald J. Trump
had failed to demonstrate, at the motion-to-dismiss stage, that he was entitled
to absolute presidential immunity from certain civil damages claims against
him,” Judges Sri Srinivasan, Judith Rogers, and Gregory Katsas wrote on Friday.
“This case is indistinguishable from Blassingame in all relevant respects.”

Dismissal of parts of the case is good news for Trump, but the appellate court
decision opens him up to lawsuits that argue the conspiracy to violate civil
rights and claims under the district’s Survival Act.




KEY TAKEAWAYS:

 * A federal judge dismissed several claims against Trump in a civil lawsuit.
 * The decision helps Trump in the case, but he faces more lawsuits related to
   Jan. 6.
 * An appellate court ruled Trump doesn’t have a claim of full presidential
   immunity.
