The Supreme Court's April 6 order vacating the D.C. Circuit's prior upholding of Steve Bannon's 2022 contempt of Congress conviction—stemming from his refusal to comply with the Jan. 6 committee subpoena—has cleared the path for the Trump administration's Justice Department to seek formal dismissal in district court, following its February motion citing interests of justice. Bannon already served a four-month sentence in 2024. Trader consensus pricing "No" at 69% reflects lingering procedural hurdles, as the district judge must now rule on dismissal amid no set timeline, leaving uncertainty whether exoneration via conviction vacatur will occur by April 30 despite DOJ's clear intent to unwind the case.

This market will resolve to “Yes” if Bannon’s 2022 Contempt of Congress conviction is dismissed, overturned, vacated, or otherwise reversed by the listed date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”.
