Judges consider Trump bid
A five-justice New York appellate panel heard arguments Thursday on Donald Trump’s challenge to his 34-count conviction for falsifying business records to conceal hush money payments linked to the 2016 election. Trump’s lawyers argued federal election law preempts the state case and that the trial improperly used evidence protected by presidential immunity; prosecutors said the case concerned fraud in business records and that any disputed evidence was not essential to the conviction. Trump was sentenced to an unconditional release shortly before his inauguration, and the panel did not issue a ruling.
