President Donald Trump asked the Supreme Court on Tuesday to block lower court rulings that would give the Manhattan District Attorney’s office access to years of his income tax returns.
Trump’s lawyers filed an emergency application with the Supreme Court asking the court to issue a stay, or suspension, of a grand jury subpoena demanding those tax returns and other financial records from his accountants.
The request is pending the president’s plan to formally ask the high court hear his appeal of the lower court rulings that have allowed that subpoena.
