We're pausing our Supreme Court live coverage for the day.

The court announced four decisions today, about tax laws, criminal procedures, drug trafficking and free speech rights. You can read the justices' decisions here, external.

We're still waiting to learn about some of the court's biggest decisions for this term, including whether Donald Trump could have immunity in the host of criminal charges he faces or the fate of those charged in the 6 January riots at the US Capitol.

We could hear about those decisions tomorrow or next week, so join us then for more live coverage.

This page was edited by Brandon Livesay and Caitlin Wilson. The writers were Christal Hayes and Laura Blasey.

The third opinion, external issued by the justices revolves around a drug trafficking case and the US border. The fourth, external concerned the First Amendment, free speech rights and whether authorities had the right to arrest a Texas woman.

These were the final opinions issued today, meaning we won't learn whether Donald Trump could have potential immunity in the host of criminal charges he faces or the fate of those charged in the 6 January riots at the US Capitol.

The second opinion has been issued. It's about the Fourth Amendment and criminal procedures.

If you want to read more on the opinion, you can see the full decision here, external.

We're still waiting for the justices to weigh in on a number of larger issues, from Donald Trump's potential criminal immunity and the 6 January riots at the Capitol.

The first decision is about tax laws.

The larger decisions we are looking out for today are about Donald Trump's presidential immunity, and the 6 January riots at the Capitol.

Hello and welcome to our live coverage the US Supreme Court, which will announce some of its new decisions shortly.

There are only days left in the court's session for this term and we're still waiting for several important rulings - including whether former US President Donald Trump is immune from criminal prosecution for alleged acts taken while he was in the White House.

Trump, who is facing multiple cases over his alleged conduct in office, has argued that he cannot be criminally charged over allegations of efforts to subvert the transfer of presidential power after the 2020 election.

The court is also expected to rule in the coming days on whether defendants charged in the 6 January, 2021 riot at the US Capitol can be charged with obstructing an official proceeding.
