U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday filed an emergency request to the Supreme Court to block his tax records from a New York grand jury subpoena, The Hill reports.

The latest development marks the second time that the president has asked the court to stop Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance from accessing his tax records spanning eight years.

In July, justices voted 7-2 to reject Trump's argument that presidents are immune from criminal process, but The Hill adds that the court said Trump could lodge legal objections in lower court proceedings.
