Trump Admin Sends New Criminal Referrals to DOJ for NY AG James

The Role of the DOJ

The Department of Justice now faces a critical decision: whether to pursue the case or decline it.

What Happens Next?

After receiving a criminal referral, federal prosecutors typically:

  1. Review the evidence
  2. Conduct preliminary investigations
  3. Decide whether to seek a grand jury indictment

Possible outcomes include:

  • No action taken
  • Further investigation
  • Formal charges filed

Given the political sensitivity of this case, any decision by the DOJ is likely to face intense scrutiny.
