What charges has Donald Trump faced in each federal and state case through December 2025?

1. Four separate criminal tracks — a short catalog

Reporting and timelines from multiple outlets catalog the four core criminal tracks lodged against Trump in 2023: a Manhattan state indictment charging falsifying business records (hush‑money-related), a Southern District of Florida federal indictment over retention of classified documents, a D.C. federal indictment tied to the Jan. 6, 2021 events and efforts to overturn the 2020 election, and a Fulton County, Georgia, indictment tied to efforts to change Georgia’s 2020 results ^{[5] [2] [1]}.

2. New York state: 34 guilty counts, then unconditional discharge

The Manhattan trial concluded with a jury conviction on 34 felony counts of first‑degree falsifying business records on May 30, 2024. Judge Juan Merchan later imposed an “unconditional discharge” on January 10, 2025 — meaning the court entered a conviction but ordered no jail, probation, or fines at sentencing — and Trump’s team continued to press appeals afterward ^{[1] [3]}.

3. Federal documents case: 40 counts alleged, later dropped

Federal prosecutors in the Southern District of Florida charged Trump in mid‑2023 with a large set of counts tied to alleged willful retention of national defense information and related obstruction — sources note a superseding indictment at one point alleged 40 charges, including 32 counts of willful retention and other obstruction counts. After Trump’s 2024 election victory, Special Counsel Jack Smith sought dismissal of the case, which was granted or the DOJ abandoned prosecution while Trump occupied the presidency ^{[2] [1] [6]}.

4. Federal Jan. 6 case: conspiracy and obstruction counts, then dismissal

In August 2023 a D.C. grand jury indicted Trump on multiple federal counts including corruptly obstructing an official proceeding (18 U.S.C. §1512(c)), conspiracy to obstruct, and conspiracy to defraud the United States. Like the documents case, prosecutors moved to drop the D.C. case after the 2024 election; Judge Tanya Chutkan had previously resisted immunity‑based dismissal but the government ultimately paused or dismissed its prosecution while Trump returned to office ^{[2] [1] [7]}.

5. Georgia state case: racketeering‑style counts, prosecutorial fight and pause

Fulton County prosecutors charged Trump and co‑defendants in August 2023 with a multi‑count indictment tied to efforts to overturn Georgia’s result; reporting describes an initial set of counts (13 initially alleged, some later dismissed) and ultimately a reduced number of live counts after appeals. The case was stalled and then complicated by efforts to disqualify prosecutor Fani Willis; courts removed Willis and the case was later described as “over” after state filings and a change in prosecution, with pardons and other political moves further complicating outcomes ^{[2] [8] [9]}.

6. Convictions, dismissals, appeals and the immunity overlay

The record through 2025 shows a mix: a state conviction in New York (34 counts) that produced an unconditional discharge; federal indictments in Florida and D.C. that were dropped after Trump’s 2024 electoral victory and Special Counsel actions; and a Georgia prosecution rendered uncertain by prosecutorial‑disqualification rulings and subsequent filings ^{[1] [4] [8]}. Some sources stress that Smith’s filings asked dismissals “without prejudice,” leaving open theoretical refiling after a presidency, while others note legal hurdles such as statutes of limitations ^{[6] [9]}.

7. Competing perspectives and the limits of public reporting

Prosecutors and their supporters argue the federal and state indictments were supported by ample evidence and, in the case of the federal matters, legally sound — Special Counsel Jack Smith later wrote he believed evidence could sustain convictions ^{[6] [9]}. Critics and Trump’s lawyers argued presidential immunity or improper appointments barred prosecutions; courts entertained those arguments at various stages ^{[7] [5]}. Available sources do not mention the full inventory of every single charged statute text-by-text in one consolidated list; detailed charge‑by‑charge language should be read from the underlying indictments and judgments (not found in current reporting).

8. Bottom line for readers

Through December 2025 the practical outcome was: one state conviction in New York (34 falsifying‑records counts with unconditional discharge at sentencing), two federal prosecutions (documents and Jan. 6) dropped after Trump’s re‑election, and the Georgia prosecution left in limbo or ended following prosecutorial disqualification and later filings — all of which remain the subject of appeals, legal maneuvering, and contrasting narratives from prosecutors and defense teams ^{[1] [4] [8]}.
