A sitting president of the United States is granted immunity for Official Acts taken as President. It is under legal dispute whether he also enjoys immunity from criminal liability or prosecution. Neither civil nor criminal immunity is explicitly granted in the Constitution or any federal statute.

Presidential immunity in the United States

What is an immunity claim?

Legal immunity, or immunity from prosecution, is a legal status wherein an individual or entity cannot be held liable for a violation of the law, in order to facilitate societal aims that outweigh the value of imposing liability in such cases.

Why might an immunity ruling in Trump's favor not alter the shape of his trial?

Why an Immunity Ruling in Trump's Favor Might Not Alter the Shape of His Trial. Prosecutors believe Donald J. Trump's official acts in trying to overturn the election should be admissible evidence even if the Supreme Court rules they cannot be the basis of the charges.
