If United States of America v. James Brien Comey, Jr. has been dismissed by the court or administrative body with jurisdiction after Issuance and before Jan 1, 2027, then the market resolves to Yes.

A dismissal is defined as:

For Criminal Cases:

Dismissal of charges by prosecutor (nolle prosequi)

Court-ordered dismissal for constitutional violations

Dismissal for speedy trial violations

Dismissal for prosecutorial misconduct

Dismissal for insufficient evidence

Dismissal following successful motion to dismiss

The following do NOT constitute dismissals:

Settlement agreements between parties

Plea bargains or guilty pleas in criminal cases

Default judgments

Summary judgments on the merits

Trial verdicts (guilty, not guilty, liable, not liable)

Consent decrees or agreed orders

Cases transferred to different courts

Cases stayed or continued indefinitely

Bankruptcy discharge (which is a substantive resolution)

Cases resolved through alternative dispute resolution

Appeals or remands (unless the appellate court dismisses the case entirely)

Temporary restraining orders or preliminary injunctions

Administrative closure

If only some claims, counts, or defendants are dismissed while the case continues on other matters, this does NOT constitute a dismissal for purposes of this contract. The entire case must be dismissed.

Outcome verified from Eastern District of North Carolina.

This market will resolve according to Kalshi's final resolution and rules.
