You’re correct; see this post BTT about the press conference:
“
If you heard her presser, she said “Charges” with the implication, later stated, that a lawsuit is the preferred resolution but criminal charges are not off the table.

The charges have not been filed yet, the DOJ is giving them time to comply but it won’t be for long and these are felony charges.
The same thing was announced against Illinois officials prior to this but I don’t remember seeing news about it.
