The Colorado Supreme Court has agreed to hear an appeal by voters who want Donald Trump removed from the state's 2024 presidential ballot.
A lower court judge has already agreed that Trump engaged in insurrection in encouraging the January 6 Capitol attack and seeking to overthrow the 2020 election result.
Trump is appealing the insurrection ruling and both appeals will be heard together, the Colorado Supreme Court has decided.
The court is addressing an appeal that challenges the lower court's decision to keep Trump on the ballot despite finding him guilty of insurrection. This case presents a critical legal contradiction that the higher court needs to resolve.
