E831-FOCUS is a photoproduction experiment which collected data during the 1996/1997 fixed target run at Fermilab. More than 1 million charm particles have been reconstructed. Using this sample we measure the lifetimes of all the weakly decaying singly charmed particles, establishing the charm lifetime hierachy. Then we present recent results on semileptonic decays of charm mesons, including the new s-wave inteference phenomena in D + → K – π + μ + ν, and high statistics branching ratio and form factor measurements.
