WASHINGTON - Now that House Democrats have wrapped their last scheduled public hearing on Ukraine, they have to decide whether to schedule more or move to the next step toward impeaching President Donald Trump.

However that ruling goes, it isn't likely to head off months of court fights over subpoenas that could go all the way to the Supreme Court."The courts are very important in all of this, those cases will continue. But I have never said we cannot proceed without the courts because that's a technique on the part of the administration - just keep ratcheting up to a higher court."

On Oct 23, a judge ordered the State Department to begin producing within 30 days documents related to the Trump administration's dealings with Ukraine, as part of a Freedom of Information Act request by American Oversight, an ethics watchdog. The committee will have to decide whether it's worth waiting for the end of those 30 days.

Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler has the option of holding his own hearings, where Trump's representatives would have more ability to participate under the impeachment inquiry rules approved by the House.
