Navarro was charged and found guilty after he refused to comply with a
subpoena from the House select committee that investigated the Jan. 6,
2021, attack on the Capitol. Congressional investigators were seeking
documents and testimony from the former White House official tied to his
post 2020-election conduct and efforts to delay the certification of
Electoral College votes.
He was sentenced to four months in prison in January. He appealed both
his conviction and the trial judge's decision to enforce his sentence as
the appeal is further litigated. Navarro has long held that he thought
he was bound by executive privilege when he refused to comply with the committee's demands, but the judge overseeing his case ruled there was
no evidence that the privilege was actually invoked.
Navarro has been ordered to turn himself into federal prison in Miami by Tuesday. His attorneys declined to comment on Roberts' order.
