As the floodgates open on civil liability over the violence of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol Complex, former president Donald Trump intends to launch a full court effort to close them.

Early Friday morning, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia allowed three personal injury lawsuits—and various other consolidation cases—against the 45th president to proceed.

Late Friday, attorneys representing Trump in those cases filed a notice saying they intend to file a motion to pause the proceedings pending a resolution of his entire criminal conspiracy case over the Jan. 6 riots.
