United States v. Navarro, opinion affirming contempt convictions

Claims supported by this source

1. factconvicted

   A D.C. federal jury found Navarro guilty on one count for refusing document production and one for refusing deposition testimony. The court had ruled he lacked sufficient evidence of a Trump invocation of executive privilege. The verdict is a criminal conviction, distinct from the committee's referral and from the later four-month sentence already recorded elsewhere in the corpus.

2. factdocumented

   The D.C. Circuit affirmed Navarro's two contempt convictions, rejecting challenges to the committee subpoena and trial rulings. After the change in administrations, the Justice Department withdrew its brief and further participation but did not seek dismissal, so the court resolved Navarro's appeal without government advocacy. He had completed custody; his convictions remained intact.
