An appeals court in Washington, D.C., has ruled that former Donald Trump White House trade adviser Peter Navarro, convicted in September on two counts of contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with a subpoena from a congressional probe investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, must report to jail pending appeal.

The 2-page per curiam opinion released Thursday stated simply:

Appellant has not shown that his appeal presents substantial questions of law or fact likely to result in reversal, a new trial, a sentence that does not include a term of imprisonment, or a reduced sentence of imprisonment that is less than the amount of time already served plus the expected duration of the appeal process. See 18 U.S.C. § 3143(b)(1)(B).

Navarro is expected to report for his four-month sentence on March 19.
