Federal charges against Trump are paused due to Justice Department policy, but state cases continue.

Former President Donald Trump's federal legal troubles have been put on hold due to Justice Department policy, which prevents indicting or prosecuting a sitting president. Special Counsel Jack Smith has dropped two federal cases against Trump, citing this policy. Trump still faces two state cases: one in New York related to a hush money payment and another in Georgia over election interference. These cases are likely to be paused during his presidency.
