I posted this two days ago - in less lagalese language, and a much more complete analysis earlier.
Aside from these Constitutional considerations, it must be said that Nancy Pelosi's action of withholding the impeachment articles is continuing to deny POTUS the opportunity to defend himself -- a continuing gross violation of his Constitutional rights. IOW: if Pelosi permanently withholds referring the Articles does that render Prez Trump permanently guilty by way of impeachment?
IMO, the White House should ask SCOTUS to nullify these Articles of Impeachment as unconstitutional, on various grounds.
