President Donald Trump renewed his fight to prevent a New York grand jury from reviewing his tax filings, after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled he doesn’t have absolute immunity from state criminal investigations.

Lawyers for Trump filed a new complaint on Monday raising objections to a subpoena sent by Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. to the president’s accounting firm Mazars USA. Vance is investigating hush-money payments made before the 2016 presidential election to Stormy Daniels, a porn actress who claims she had an affair with Trump.
