The judge overseeing Peter Navarro’s contempt of Congress case ruled in a pre-trial hearing Wednesday that the former Trump adviser “has not met his burden” to show a formal assertion of executive privilege by former president Donald Trump.

Navarro will stand trial on criminal contempt of Congress next week for defying subpoenas issued to him by the House select committee that investigated the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

In a lengthy ruling, Judge Amit Mehta said that Navarro did not provide evidence that Trump asserted executive privilege specific to the Jan 6. committee’s subpoena.
