Search for the Charged Higgs boson in the $\tau$+jets final state

The discovery of a new scalar particle at the LHC opens the question of whether this new particle is the Higgs boson of the SM, or one physical state of an extended Higgs sector. Charged Higgs bosons, are predicted by several non-minimal Higgs scenarios, and an observation of such a particle will clearly indicate new physics beyond the SM. I will report on the most recent status of the search for the Charged Higgs boson in the $H\to\tau\nu$ decay mode, and the expectation of the forthcoming results.
