      "title": "The Intersection Between the Former Presidents Act and the Impeachment Process",
      "summary": "Under the Former Presidents Act, as amended, 3 U.S.C. \u00bf 102 note, former Presidents receive\na\nmonetary allowance for the remainder of their lives, except for those periods when they hold\nappointive or elective office or a position in or under the Federal government or the District of\nColumbia government at other than a nominal rate of pay. The Act also provides for office staff and\noffice space for former Presidents and for a monetary allowance for a former President's widow,\nunder specified circumstances, should he predecease her. The Act defines the term \"former\nPresident\" to include persons who have held the office of President of the United States of America,\nwho do not currently hold that office, and whose service in that office terminated other than by\nremoval through the impeachment process. It appears that if a President is tried by the Senate in an\nimpeachment trial, but not convicted and therefore not removed from office; or if he were to resign\nbefore or during an impeachment proceeding, but before being convicted on an article of\nimpeachment; he would remain a \"former President\" for purposes of the Act.",
