Trump's 4 indictments in detail: A quick-look guide to charges, trial dates and key players for each case

Donald Trump, the first former president in American history to be charged with either state or federal crimes, is now facing four separate indictments. Here is a brief overview of the key players and allegations in each of his four criminal cases.

State indictment on business fraud charges in New York

Trump is accused of violating New York State law by allegedly agreeing to obscure a series of reimbursements to his former lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen, who is the key witness against Trump in the case. Cohen made a $130,000 alleged "hush money" payment to adult film star Stephanie Clifford, known as Stormy Daniels, days before the 2016 election, in exchange for her silence about an alleged affair with Trump. Trump denies the allegations and says there was no affair.

Prosecutors accuse Trump of illegally portraying the reimbursements to Cohen as legal expenses.
