This market will resolve to “Yes” if any Federal or State jurisdiction of the United States formally charges or otherwise announces a criminal indictment of former Department of Justice Special Prosecutor Jack Smith by March 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. For the purposes of this market the District of Columbia and any county, municipality, or other subdivision of a State shall be included within the definition of a State. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from US governmental sources, however a wide consensus of credible reporting will also be used.With the March 31 deadline approaching, trader consensus reflects a 93% implied probability against former special counsel Jack Smith facing federal charges, driven by the Trump DOJ's lack of any formal indictment announcement despite earlier rhetoric from President Trump and officials like Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche labeling Smith's probes as "lawfare." Recent scrutiny, including a March 25 Reuters report on new FBI memos from Smith's Trump documents investigation raising unverified business conflict concerns and a February 23 court ruling permanently blocking Smith's report release, has intensified criticism but yielded no prosecutorial action amid evidentiary and procedural hurdles. Smith's January congressional testimony defending his indictments against Trump further highlighted divisions, yet no charges have materialized in over two months. Late-breaking DOJ moves remain possible but unlikely given historical confirmation patterns for high-profile cases.
