This market will resolve to "Yes" if Donald Trump, his administration (including any executive branch department, agency, or office), or the United States federal government files a lawsuit against Jerome Powell, in his personal or official capacity, by March 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". The lawsuit must be filed in a U.S. federal or state court and must name Jerome Powell as a defendant. An announcement of a lawsuit will NOT qualify for a “Yes” resolution; a lawsuit must actually be filed. The primary resolution sources for this market will be official information from the relevant U.S. federal court. However, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.With the March 31 deadline just days away, trader consensus reflects near-certainty at 99.4% "No" that President Trump or his administration will file a civil lawsuit against Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, driven by the complete absence of any filing or announcement despite repeated public threats since late 2025. Trump has criticized Powell over high interest rates and multi-billion-dollar Federal Reserve building renovations labeled "gross incompetence," opting instead for a Department of Justice criminal probe and subpoenas in January 2026—which a federal judge blocked on March 16 amid concerns for Fed independence. Recent complaints from Trump on March 26 underscore ongoing friction but no lawsuit momentum, prioritizing other executive pressures. A last-minute filing remains theoretically possible but faces steep procedural barriers.
