Election may decide if Trump's legal woes reach US Supreme Court or wither

The fate of at least two of the cases with Trump as a defendant could hinge on the election's outcome.

If Trump regains the presidency, he could seek to pardon himself or have his new Justice Department leadership pull the plug on the two federal criminal cases pursued by Special Counsel Jack Smith .

Trump is the Republican candidate facing Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris , with the winner becoming president on Jan. 20 .

Trump could similarly seek immunity in the Georgia election-related prosecution in which he and 14 co-defendants have pleaded not guilty.

The case has been on hold while a Georgia appeals court considers whether Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis , the lead prosecutor, should be disqualified over alleged misconduct tied to a romantic relationship she had with a former top deputy.

Trump also is appealing the nearly half-billion dollar judgment against him over real estate business practices in the civil fraud case.
