Trump's Election Win: Impact on Legal Battles Explained

President-elect Trump, now the first convicted felon to win the White House, is unlikely to face legal consequences for his criminal cases due to presidential immunity. Trump has been indicted in four cases, including the New York hush money case, the Georgia election interference case, the federal Jan. 6 case, and the federal classified documents case. His election win halts these proceedings, as Justice Department policy prohibits prosecuting a sitting president. Trump's team is also seeking to delay his New York sentencing and challenge the Georgia case's lead prosecutor.
