The U.S. Supreme Court is unlikely to grant Donald Trump immunity from prosecution, legal experts have said.

On Wednesday, the Supreme Court agreed to hear Trump's claim that he has presidential immunity from his election fraud trial in Washington D.C.

Regardless of the outcome, the Supreme Court has helped Trump's goal of delaying the case until after the 2024 presidential election.

If elected president, Trump has several options to end the trial, including pardoning himself or appointing a favorable attorney general to drop the case.

If the Supreme Court takes its conventional timeline for cases, it could push the start of the trial into October or November.

If it takes an expedited route, the election fraud case could start as early as July.
