The good news for Donald Trump is that he can continue living at his Florida club, Mar-a-Lago, despite facing possible eviction.
At a Palm Beach council meeting on Tuesday, a lawyer for the former president explained that Mr Trump is a club employee, which means that he abides by a decades-long agreement stating that no-one could live at Mar-a-Lago unless they worked there.
And so, the lawyer argued, he can remain on the premises.
Mr Trump bought Mar-a-Lago in 1985, and over the years has spent part of his winters there.
