On 28 February 2024, the Supreme Court agreed to hear Trump's appeal (Supremecourt.gov - Trump v. US Docket) from the DC Circuit's decision that he did not have presidential immunity from criminal prosecution for events related to the 6 January 2021 riot at the Capitol Building (SCOTUSblog, CBS News, The Hill, DC Circuit - US v. Trump). The Supreme Court is expected to hand down its decision in its 2023 term, but if it does not, the question will close as "No." If the Court decides this case without addressing this question's particular issue of law as to Trump and the criminal charges in place that gave rise to this case, the question will close as "No." A ruling that Trump has immunity for some, but not all, criminal charges at issue will not count.
