U.S. District Judge Dolly Gee in a written order on Friday said a rule adopted by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in April adequately implements the key aspects of the 1997 settlement agreement and court supervision is likely no longer required. Gee also agreed with the Biden administration that the pact, known as the Flores settlement agreement or FSA, was no longer workable because Texas and Florida have stopped licensing migrant childcare programs.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The U.S. Supreme Court's ruling on presidential immunity leaves Judge Tanya Chutkan to determine how much of the federal criminal case involving Donald Trump's efforts to overturn his defeat to Joe Biden in the 2020 election can survive.

The court delegated to Chutkan, a judge on the U.S. district court in Washington, the complex task of determining how to apply that immunity in the four-count criminal indictment obtained last year by Special Counsel Jack Smith.
