Sandeep Prasanna commented on the impact of the 2024 presidential election on the potential timing of trial dates for former President Donald Trump, and the impact of the election on the trials and underlying charges. If Trump were to be elected president, many assume that the federal cases would not move forward. "We can expect that his Justice Department would drop those cases," Prasanna said, adding, "I don't see a scenario in which a president's own Justice Department would be pursuing a prosecution against a sitting president."
