This seemed to be popular information when I posted it (ahem) "elsewhere". Thought it might be welcome to have here.

Other grand juries, such as for the documents at Bedminster, or the Arizona fake electors, have not been announced.

The E. Jean Carroll trial for sexual assault and defamation where Trump was found liable and ordered to pay $5 million before immediately defaming her again resulting in a demand for $10 million is not listed as it's a civil case and not a crimimal one. That trial date is currently set for January 15th, the same day as the Iowa caucus. and has now been determined to be for damages only as Trump was already found liable.

As a function of the January 6th and Georgia trials, there are now lawsuits in two states to bar Trump from the primary ballot based on the insurrection clause of the 14th Amendment.

Colorado: 9/6/2023 - Lawsuit filed.

Minnesota: 9/12/2023 - Lawsuit filed.

A long-shot write in candidate for President has also filed suits seeking to bar Trump from the ballot in Florida, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Utah, West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming.

I didn't want to have to keep posting the same chart over and over, better to update it in one place and link to it. :)
