What is the current status of each criminal conviction against Donald Trump as of November 19, 2025?
Executive summary
As of November 19, 2025, available reporting shows Donald Trump had been convicted on 34 felony counts in the New York “hush‑money” case (May 30, 2024) and that the Georgia racketeering prosecution had been effectively ended by judicial and prosecutorial actions later in 2025; federal prosecutions had been dismissed or paused earlier after his 2024 election victory and related legal developments [1] [2] [3]. Sources document ongoing appeals and legal challenges to the New York conviction through late 2025 [4] [5].
1. The New York hush‑money conviction: guilty on 34 counts, appeal underway
Trump was found guilty by a Manhattan jury on May 30, 2024 of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to payments surrounding Stormy Daniels; that conviction remains the central criminal verdict against him and his lawyers appealed, arguing admission of evidence conflicted with later Supreme Court immunity doctrine [1] [4]. The Justice Department and Trump’s team both raised constitutional questions tied to the high court’s 2024 presidential‑immunity decision; Reuters and Axios reporting show the government and defense sought relief in the appellate process in late 2025 [5] [4].
2. Sentencing and post‑verdict procedural steps
Legal trackers report the New York trial produced a conviction on all 34 counts and that sentencing activity followed in 2024 and early 2025; publications note subsequent filings and motions to overturn or vacate the conviction were pending in appellate fora by late 2025 [1] [4]. Sources emphasize the appeal’s central claim: that evidence of “official acts” admitted at trial was protected by the Supreme Court’s later immunity ruling, potentially undermining parts of the prosecution [4] [5].
3. Georgia racketeering case: disqualified prosecutor, pauses, then dismissal actions
The Fulton County racketeering case against Trump — a major prosecution over efforts to overturn Georgia’s 2020 results — ran into prosecutorial disqualification and procedural stoppages in 2024–2025; the Georgia Court of Appeals and other state courts took actions that paused the case, and by late November 2025 reporting shows a judge ordered the case dismissed in its entirety [3] [2]. Reporting from CNBC explains Judge Scott McAfee’s November 26, 2025 dismissal as closing the last unresolved state criminal case after Trump’s 2024 return to the White House [2].
4. Federal indictments: paused, dismissed, and immunity implications
The two federal cases (special‑counsel and classified‑documents matters) were reported by legal trackers as effectively paused or dismissed after Trump’s 2024 election victory and doctrinal developments concerning presidential immunity; Lawfare and other summaries note that after the 2024 Supreme Court ruling, federal prosecutions faced new legal obstacles and some appeals or charges were dropped by mid‑2025 [1] [3]. Sources show the immunity decision has become a central defensive and prosecutorial battleground, with both sides invoking it in filings [4] [5].
5. Counts dismissed and civil penalties: legal collateral still active
Aggregated trackers list that across Trump’s indictments there were 88 criminal counts initially and that, by late November 2025, 34 resulted in conviction while many others were dismissed or dropped; Ballotpedia and encyclopedic summaries record 52 charges dismissed by November 26, 2025 [6] [3]. Separately, federal appeals courts upheld civil or sanction penalties against Trump for “frivolous” litigation, illustrating that non‑criminal legal liabilities continued even as criminal prosecutions shifted [7] [8].
6. Competing narratives and political context
News outlets capture two competing framings: prosecutors and many legal observers describe the cases as legitimate criminal enforcement that produced a rare conviction of a former president [1], while Trump’s defense and allies characterize prosecutions as politically motivated and argue the Supreme Court’s immunity ruling nullifies key evidence from trials [4] [5]. Opinion pieces and political analysis point to the immunity decision and post‑election prosecutorial choices as decisive in leaving Trump insulated while in office, an outcome some commentators call likely to continue through his presidency [9].
7. What reporting does not say (limitations)
Available sources do not provide a single consolidated docket‑level status for every individual count across all cases as of November 19, 2025; instead, they report outcomes at the case or counts‑aggregated level (conviction of 34 counts, many dismissals, appellate activity, and a Georgia dismissal by late November) [6] [2] [1]. Sources also do not detail any final, unappealable extinguishment of the New York conviction as of November 19, 2025 — they instead show appeals and legal challenges ongoing [4] [5].
Summary: reporters and legal trackers agree the only criminal conviction as of the period was the 34‑count New York verdict (May 30, 2024) with appeals continuing; Georgia’s racketeering case was effectively terminated by judicial and prosecutorial developments later in 2025; federal matters were constrained by the Supreme Court immunity ruling and subsequent dismissals or pauses [1] [2] [4].
