Summary

Donald Trump’s re-election raises questions about the fate of his ongoing legal battles.

Facing 34 felony convictions and several federal and state charges, Trump could attempt to leverage presidential immunity to delay or dismiss cases.

Judge Juan Merchan will soon rule on whether immunity applies to Trump’s New York case involving hush-money payments, potentially canceling his sentencing.

While Trump can self-pardon federal charges, he has no such power in state cases like Georgia’s election interference trial, which may remain on hold until his term ends.

Civil lawsuits, including those for sexual abuse and fraud, are still viable under a Supreme Court precedent allowing presidents to be sued.
