The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia is set to rehear the lawsuit launched by House Democrats to enforce a subpoena against former White House Counsel Don McGahn. The appeals court granted the Democrat-led House Judiciary Committee's request to rehear the lawsuit en banc. The committee hopes a hearing before all 11 judges on the circuit court will give it a more favorable result. McGahn played a key role in the White House's legal operations, including the nominations and confirmations of Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh. The Judiciary Committee subpoenaed McGahn about a month after the report's release, but the Trump administration claimed that McGahn had absolute immunity from being forced to testify to congressional investigators.
