Trump v. Mazars USA
Trump v. Mazars USA was a case argued before the Supreme Court of the United States on May 12, 2020, during the court's October 2019-2020 term. The case came on a writ of certiorari to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. The case was consolidated with Trump v. Deutsche Bank AG.[2][3]
The court vacated the D.C. Circuit's decision in a 7-2 ruling and remanded the case. The court held that the lower courts (the D.C. Circuit and the 2nd Circuit) did not adequately consider whether congressional subpoenas requesting information from the president raise separation of powers concerns.[4] Click here for more information.

Oral argument was initially scheduled for March 31, 2020. However, the U.S. Supreme Court announced on March 16 that it was postponing the 11 oral arguments originally scheduled during its March sitting. In a press release, the court said the delay was "in keeping with public health precautions recommended in response to COVID-19."[5] COVID-19 is the abbreviation for coronavirus disease 2019, caused by SARS-CoV-2. On April 15, the court announced it had rescheduled the case for May 12, 2020.

- The case: In both cases, certain U.S. House committees issued subpoenas requesting financial documents. One subpoena was issued to President Donald Trump's (R) accounting firm, Mazars USA, LLP ("Mazars"). Two others were each issued to Deutsche Bank and the Capital One Financial Corporation. The president, acting in his individual capacity, challenged the subpoenas' validity in federal district court. In each case, the district court ruled in favor of the U.S. House committees. The president appealed to federal circuit courts, which upheld the district courts' decisions in both cases. Click here for more details about Trump v.

- The issue: Whether the U.S. House Oversight and Reform Committee, Financial Services Committee, and Intelligence Committee have the "constitutional and statutory authority to issue" subpoenas to President Trump's accountant and to the president's creditors "demanding private financial records belonging to the president."[6][7]
- The outcome: The court vacated the D.C. Circuit's decision in a 7-2 ruling and remanded the case. The court held that the lower courts (the D.C. Circuit and the 2nd Circuit) did not adequately consider whether congressional subpoenas requesting information from the president raise separation of powers concerns.[4]
