In order to prosecute the case, it must be reopened. In essence Cannon’s dismissal of the case must be overruled by a higher court, the 11th, circuit, for this to happen. Then prosecution can proceed. I agree that this whole series of shenanigans, speicifically by Cannon are absolutely ridiculous. And there is a ‘legal system’ and it must proceed according to specific laws, rules, and procedures.
I don’t think the vagueness is going to be a major factor here. After someone stops being the president, by definition they cannot do a presidential act, official or otherwise.
They should be prosecuting the case, not begging the courts to continue the case. This is ridiculous

Except for official presidential acts. (could it be more vague?) –SCOTUS
Stacked court is stacked

Clarence and Sam would disagree, for reasons.
