Donald Trump has pleaded not guilty to charges in a revised indictment accusing him of attempting to overturn the 2020 US presidential election results.

Trump waived his right to appear in person at the arraignment, instructing his attorneys to enter a not guilty plea.

The revised indictment, filed by Special Counsel Jack Smith, maintains the same four charges but considers a recent Supreme Court ruling that provides broad immunity from criminal prosecution for former presidents.

District Judge Tanya Chutkan granted Trump's request to skip the arraignment, which coincides with a status conference.

The charges include conspiracy to defraud the United States and conspiracy to obstruct the January 6, 2021, congressional session.

The trial, initially set for March 4, has been delayed due to Trump's claims of presidential immunity.
