The case before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit was brought by seven U.S. Capitol Police officers against former President Donald Trump and more than a dozen others.

A federal appeals court on Friday allowed a lawsuit brought by a group of U.S. Capitol Police officers against former President Donald Trump to move forward, ruling that Trump is not entitled to absolute immunity from civil lawsuits. The suit focuses on Trump’s alleged conduct surrounding the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol.
