Former President Donald Trump has appealed a judge’s order requiring his former vice president, Mike Pence, to testify in the special counsel probe into efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election, a person familiar with the matter said on Monday.
Trump’s lawyers filed the appeal after a ruling related to the Justice Department investigation of efforts to undermine the 2020 presidential election that Trump, a Republican, lost to Democrat Joe Biden.
The case remains under seal. But on Monday, a new sealed case appeared on the federal appeals court docket in Washington, DC, that referred to a grand jury matter before US District Chief Judge James Boasberg.
