SCOTUS Agrees to Take Up 3 Cases on Trump’s Taxes and Financial Records
The U.S. Supreme Court has just announced it will take up three cases related to whether or not President Donald Trump’s agents will have to hand over his personal financial records, including tax and banking documents.
Lower courts have all ruled against President Trump.
The Court will hear oral arguments in March and is not expected to reach a decision until June of 2020, just months before the presidential election.
“Rulings against the president could result in the quick release of personal financial information that Trump has sought strenuously to keep private. The court also will decide whether the Manhattan district attorney can obtain eight years of Trump’s tax returns as part of an ongoing criminal investigation,” the AP reports.
