James Comey’s indictment dismissed before trial?

Speculation about a possible dismissal of James Comey’s indictment has grown after Judge William Fitzpatrick criticized prosecutors’ handling of the case. The trial is currently scheduled to begin on January 5, 2026. This market will resolve to "Yes" if James Comey’s criminal indictment is wholly dismissed before the start of his trial. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". Partial dismissals that result in the indictment remaining active will not be sufficient to trigger a "Yes" resolution. If prosecutors withdraw charges before trial, or Comey otherwise ceases to face the indictment without a formal dismissal, this market will resolve to "No". This market will only resolve to "Yes" if the indictment is wholly dismissed before the trial officially begins. If neither a dismissal nor the start of the trial has occurred by March 31, 2026, this market will resolve to "No". The primary resolution source for this market will be information from the U.S. federal court system; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.
