Trump is facing charges and investigations at multiple levels. He has made history several times since March, becoming the first former president to be indicted on state and federal charges, as well as the first to be found liable for sexual assault.Here is a roundup of the former president's legal battles and any relevant upcoming dates.
Nauta is charged with six counts as a co-conspirator of allegedly mishandling classified documents, hundreds of which were discovered at Mar-a-Lago, where Nauta worked. His arraignment is set for June 27, and Trump was ordered not to speak with Nauta about the case.Trump's legal team is currently building its defense in a separate case out of New York, which is expected to be a long and bitter court battle.
Prosecutors have voiced their opposition to the former president's proposals. The federal court will hold a hearing on June 27 to discuss, but it is possible a ruling could come sooner. The district attorney also gave law enforcement a timeline for this summer, warning them that the announcement of the charges could lead to civil unrest or even violence.E. Jean Carroll won her defamation and sexual assault case against Trump on May 9, with the former president ordered to pay roughly $5 million in damages.
However, recent court filings suggest that the DOJ is reconsidering its position after Trump called Carroll a liar and the sexual assault a"hoax" at the CNN town hall. A federal judge ruled on Tuesday that Carroll could amend her original lawsuit to include Trump's town hall comments.
