Kevin Carroll on The Trump Immunity Appeal

Welcome to the Hughes Hubbard Anti-Corruption & Internal Investigations Practice Group’s podcast, All Things Investigation. In this podcast, I joined HughesHubbardReed partner Kevin Carroll to take a deep dive into the DC Court of Appeals opinion on the immunity claim of Citizen Trump. Kevin Carroll's perspective on the percussive opinion on Trump's immunity doctrine claims is that it was a significant and positive development for democracy. Carroll expresses satisfaction with the unanimous opinion and believes that it comprehensively addresses the issues at stake. His understanding of the resolution of Bill Clinton's special counsel case further reinforces his belief that former presidents can be held criminally liable for conduct committed in office. He also emphasizes the importance of the opinion being written in a way that is understandable to non-lawyers and the weight of the per curium nature of the opinion, indicating that all three judges signed it, making it difficult to challenge or dismiss any part of it. Join Tom Fox and Kevin Carroll on this episode of All Things Investigation to delve deeper into this topic.
