(CNN) The US Supreme Court on Friday formally issued the paperwork that will allow the effort by a Manhattan district attorney to seek President Donald Trump's tax returns to proceed quickly. While the court ruled last week that the President does not have broad immunity against a state grand jury investigation, it allowed Trump to file additional appeals to block the subpoenas for the tax returns. However, the court's formal judgments are generally not issued for 25 days, potentially delaying the resumption of the lawsuit at the lower courts. The district attorney asked for that time to be cut short, and Trump's attorney agreed. Issuing the judgment will allow the legal case to continue more quickly.
