An effort by Donald Trump and his legal team to throw out his recent hush money trial following Monday’s SCOTUS decision is being heavily criticized by legal experts, who are predicting the attempt will fail.
On Monday, Trump’s legal team asked the judge presiding over the case in which Trump was convicted on 34 counts of falsifying business records to throw out his conviction and delay his sentencing, which is scheduled for July 11 in Manhattan. The letter to Judge Juan Merchan cites the Supreme Court granting the former president immunity for “official acts," The New York Times reported.
