Trump has so far evaded responsibility for the events of Jan. 6 — namely, allegations he conspired to intimidate lawmakers to keep them from certifying results of the 2020 election.

But a civil case brought by lawmakers has survived every bid Trump has made to bury it for 4 years. Soon, the judge presiding over the case will make a critical decision that could be the very last chance the country will ever have to hold Trump to account in a court of law for Jan. 6.
