▶ Follow live updates on President Donald Trump and his administration
Before he battled his way back to the White House, President Donald Trump was in court battling a slew of civil lawsuits and criminal charges that threatened to upend his finances and take away his freedom. Those cases have mostly abated since his return to office, albeit with some loose ends.
On Thursday, Trump declared “total victory” after an appeals court threw out a massive financial penalty in New York Attorney General Letitia James’ lawsuit alleging that he exaggerated his wealth and the value of marquee assets like Trump Tower and Mar-a-Lago. Other punishments affecting Trump’s business still apply, but they can be paused pending further appeals.
Since Trump’s reelection in November, four separate criminal cases — including his hush money conviction and allegations of election interference and illegally hoarding classified documents — have either been dropped, resolved or put aside. On the civil side, several high-profile lawsuits against Trump have been quietly working their way through the appeals process.
Here’s a look at some of Trump’s criminal and civil cases and where they stand now:
