House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) may find it difficult to convince judges that a formal impeachment inquiry is underway if she doesn’t hold a vote, according to a legal expert and attorneys working for the Trump administration.

Pelosi announced on Tuesday that she wouldn’t hold a vote in the House of Representatives.
