McGahn was a 星／主役にする 証言，証人／目撃する in special counsel Robert Mueller's 報告（する）／憶測 who - under Trump's orders - has 辞退するd to 解放（する） 文書s or 証言する before the パネル盤.

The Democratic 訴訟 is 推定する／予想するd to challenge the White House 合理的な／理性的な that McGahn and other 証言，証人／目撃するs have '絶対の 免疫' from appearing and can 反抗する 召喚状s.

The 合法的な 活動／戦闘 comes at a time when more than half of House 民主党員s have said they support beginning an 告発 調査. Pelosi has so far resisted that step, 説 she wants to wait to see what happens in 法廷，裁判所.?

The McGahn 訴訟 is a central part of Pelosi's 戦略 of '立法者, 調査／捜査する, litigate,' but could 延期する any final 決定／判定勝ち（する）s on 告発 for several months.

In a letter to 同僚s 発表するing that the 訴訟 was 切迫した, Pelosi said 'no one is above the 法律.'

McGahn's lawyer, William A. Burck, in a 声明 said 'McGahn is a lawyer and has an 倫理的な 義務 to 保護する （弁護士の）依頼人 信用／信任s' and does not believe he 証言，証人／目撃するd any 違反 of 法律.

'When 直面するd with competing 需要・要求するs from co-equal 支店s of 政府, Don will follow his former （弁護士の）依頼人's 指示／教授／教育, absent a contrary 決定／判定勝ち（する） from the 連邦の 司法の,' Burck said.

In a contrast to Pelosi, House 司法の 委員会 Chairman Jerrold Nadler 主張するs that the 委員会 is essentially already doing the work of 告発, with or without a formal House 投票（する） to begin an 調査.?

Nadler has also made it （疑いを）晴らす that he'd 好意 beginning 公式の／役人 訴訟／進行s, 説 last month that Trump 'richly deserves' 告発.

Nadler laid out an 積極的な timeline this week, 説 that he hopes to be able to have 決意／決議 in 法廷，裁判所 by the end of October.

'If we decide to 報告（する）／憶測 articles of 告発 we could get to that in the late 落ちる, perhaps in the latter part of the year,' Nadler said Monday on MSNBC.

The 司法の パネル盤 has also とじ込み／提出するd a 嘆願（書） in 連邦の 法廷，裁判所 to 得る secret 大陪審 構成要素 underlying Mueller's 報告（する）／憶測.?

The request, とじ込み／提出するd on July 26, argues the パネル盤 needs the （警察などへの）密告，告訴（状） as it 重さを計るs whether to 追求する 告発.

The 委員会 and the Jus tice Department agreed to とじ込み／提出する arguments by the end of September, 押し進めるing any 決意／決議 until October.

民主党員s are 押し進めるing ahead with their 調査s に引き続いて Mueller's 証言 before the 司法の 委員会 in July, when he told the パネル盤 he had not 'exculpated' Trump.?

民主党員s are trying to 焦点（を合わせる） public attention on Mueller's words and on his 448-page 報告（する）／憶測's contents, 含むing several episodes in which Trump sought to 影響（力） the special counsel's 調査 into Russia 選挙 干渉，妨害.

Mueller 結論するd that he could not exonerate Trump on obstruction of 司法（官）. He also 結論するd that there was insufficient 証拠 to 証明する a 犯罪の 共謀 between Trump's （選挙などの）運動をする and Russia.

Nadler said the 大陪審 （警察などへの）密告，告訴（状） 'is 批判的に important for our ability to 診察する 証言，証人／目撃するs' like McGahn and 調査／捜査する the 大統領，／社長. He said the Mueller 報告（する）／憶測 is not all of the 証拠, but 'a 要約 of the 証拠.'

民主党員s are fighting the Trump 行政 in 法廷，裁判所 on several other 前線s. The House Ways and Means 委員会 告訴するd the 財務省 Department and IRS 公式の／役人s this summer in an 試みる／企てる to 得る the 大統領，／社長's 税金 returns.?

And in two other 事例／患者s, the 行政 has tried to stop 財政上の 会・原則s from turning over Trump's personal 記録，記録的な／記録するs to 議会.

Trump is trying to 封鎖する most every request from 議会, 説 he will fight 'all of the 召喚状s.' But 民主党員s think they have 会社／堅い 合法的な standing to 勝利，勝つ against him in 法廷，裁判所, and Nadler said he believes the McGahn 事例／患者 could break the logjam.

'Once we 勝利，勝つ that we'll 勝利，勝つ all the other 召喚状s because they are 基本的に the same 合法的な questions,' Nadler said Monday.
