The U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in a case that will determine whether former President
Trump can be kicked off Colorado’s state primary ballot for allegedly interfering in the
2020 election could arrive as early as Monday.

The Colorado Supreme Court ruled in December that Trump is disqualified from being
president again and ineligible for the state's primary – which is Tuesday. Trump, who has
since been barred from primary ballots in Illinois and Maine, has challenged the Colorado
court’s decision.

The state’s highest court was the first to invoke Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, a post-
ivil War constitutional provision aimed at preventing those who "engaged in insurrection"
from holding office. Until now, the Supreme Court has never ruled on the provision.

The potential resolution of the case on Monday, a day before Super Tuesday contests in
16 states, would remove uncertainty about whether votes for Trump, the leading
Republican candidate for president, will ultimately count. Both sides had requested fast
work by the court, which heard arguments on Feb. 8.

PLEDGE TO SUPPORT GOP NOMINEE

Except for when the end of the term nears in late June, the court almost always issues
decisions on days when the justices are scheduled to take the bench. But the next
scheduled court day isn't until March 15. The justices won't be there on Monday. Any
opinions will be posted on the court's website beginning just after 10 a.m. EST Monday.

The anticipated decision comes after the justices agreed last week to hear arguments in
late April over whether Trump can be criminally prosecuted on election interference
charges, including his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, riot attack on the U.S. Capitol. The court's
decision to step into the politically charged case calls into question whether Trump will
stand trial before the November election.

The former president faces more than 90 criminal charges in four prosecutions. Of those,
the only one with a trial date is his state case in New York in which he's charged with
falsifying business records in connection with hush-money payments to a porn actor. That
case is set for trial on March 25, and the judge has signaled his determination to press
ahead.
