Trump\u2019s legal team is pursuing multiple efforts to erase the conviction, including a New York state appeal and a separate attempt to shift the case into federal court based on presidential immunity.<\/p>\n<p>The article notes that, politically, the conviction helped Trump\u2019s message that he was targeted by a corrupt establishment, boosting unity within the Republican Party and enabling large fundraising efforts. It also describes why many constitutional and legal experts argue the prosecution was fundamentally flawed, including claims that the case was \u201clawfare\u201d and that prosecutors improperly stretched theories into felony charges.<\/p>\n<p>Key arguments highlighted in the appeals include whether <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/scotus-to-hear-sen-cruz-challenge-to-campaign-finance-law\/\" title=\"SCOTUS to hear Sen. Cruz challenge to ... finance law\">federal campaign-finance law<\/a> should have preempted a state felony theory, and whether evidence presented at trial involved conduct that the U.S. Supreme Court later said is protected under presidential immunity for official acts. The author also points to procedural and timing delays in both state and federal tracks, with some observers suggesting courts may be waiting for rulings in the other venue to avoid outcomes becoming moot.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<article class=\"fn-body\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nearly two years after a <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/new-york\">Manhattan<\/a> jury found President <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\">Donald Trump<\/a> guilty on 34 felony counts in a hush money case, the legal battle to erase the president\u2019s lone criminal conviction remains alive across multiple courts, even as the political moment that surrounded the historic verdict has largely faded into history.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When the verdict came down on May 30, 2024, then-President <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/joe-biden\/\">Joe Biden<\/a> was still seeking reelection, and Democrats openly hoped the conviction would cripple then-candidate Trump\u2019s bid to return to the <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/section\/white-house\/\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/section\/white-house\/\">White House<\/a>.<\/p>\n<section class=\"explore-more-section\" id=\"wex-recommended-widget\">\n<div class=\"magazine-container single\">\n<h1 class=\"magazine-title mt-2\">Recommended Stories<\/h1>\n<p>             <i class=\"fa-solid fa-play icon\"><\/i>         <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-grid\">\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/videos\/4575084\/inside-scoop-jim-antle-donald-trump-ben-sasse-legacy-stephen-colbert\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>Inside Scoop: Trump 2.0 post-Dobbs, Ben Sasse\u2019s warning to Congress, Colbert signs off<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/videos\/4565759\/inside-scoop-trump-mamdani-restoring-america-women-far-left\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>Inside Scoop: Trump and Mamdani, Restoring America, why women are moving left<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/magazine\/4556342\/inside-scoop-jim-antle-left-violence-epidemic-ballroom-king-charles-visit\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>Inside Scoop: Left-wing violence epidemic, White House ballroom momentum, tale of two kings<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead, Biden\u2019s disastrous debate performance less than a month later upended the race, and within weeks, he dropped out altogether.

(Seth Wenig\/AP)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And yet, the conviction itself remains unresolved, and the record still stands that Trump is the first convicted felon to serve as president.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump\u2019s new legal team is pursuing multiple avenues to overturn the verdict, including a pending appeal in New York state court and a separate effort to move the case into federal court on presidential immunity grounds. Both tracks remain active, and either could ultimately wipe away the conviction that briefly appeared poised to reshape the <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/2024-elections\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"522\">2024 election<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If anything, though, the conviction helped Trump politically in his successful quest to reclaim the presidency. Rather than hurting his campaign, the conviction strengthened Trump\u2019s narrative that he was the victim of a politically motivated, corrupt establishment. This grievance galvanized his supporters and helped unify the <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/republican-party\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"514\">Republican Party<\/a> behind him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump also successfully leveraged the trial and eventual verdict to raise tens of millions of dollars from both established donors and grassroots supporters who viewed the prosecution as an act of \u201c<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/lawfare\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"11776\">lawfare<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-the-flaws-in-the-hush-money-trial\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">The flaws in the hush money trial<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The appeals come as prominent constitutional and legal experts have said the case should never have resulted in a conviction.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAfter 63 years of practicing criminal law, I have never seen a weaker case than this one,\u201d Harvard Law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz told the <em>Washington Examiner<\/em>. \u201cThis was the worst example of lawfare and targeting that I\u2019ve ever seen. They just made up a crime.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Manhattan prosecution stemmed from allegations that Trump falsified business records related to reimbursements paid to former attorney <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/michael-cohen\/\">Michael Cohen<\/a> after a payment to adult film actress <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/justice\/2997800\/trump-attorneys-stormy-daniels-cashed-in\/\">Stormy Daniels<\/a> ahead of the 2016 election. Democratic Manhattan District Attorney <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/alvin-bragg\/\">Alvin Bragg<\/a> ultimately secured convictions on all 34 counts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The case quickly became a flashpoint in the broader debate over whether prosecutors were selectively targeting Trump, given the two federal criminal indictments he faced from the <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/biden-administration\/\">Biden administration<\/a> and a separate racketeering case brought by <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/fulton-county\/\">Fulton County<\/a> District Attorney <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/fani-willis\/\">Fani Willis<\/a>, all of which were ultimately dismissed. Critics pointed to Bragg\u2019s campaign rhetoric about pursuing Trump and to the role of <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/justice\/3025180\/scrutiny-prosecutor-matthew-colangelo-intensifies-trump-conviction\/\">Matthew Colangelo<\/a>, a former senior Justice Department official who left the Biden administration to join Bragg\u2019s office and help lead the prosecution.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump\u2019s supporters also attacked a series of decisions made by New York Justice Juan Merchan throughout the proceedings, including the gag order that restricted many of Trump\u2019s public comments about witnesses and participants connected to the case. Further scrutiny was raised as to whether Merchan should have recused himself because of small-dollar political donations he made before the trial and because his daughter, <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/3108164\/house-gop-demands-judge-merchans-daughter-provide-records-work-kamala-harris\/\">Loren Merchan<\/a>, worked as a Democratic political consultant whose firm had ties to prominent Democratic candidates and causes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The state court appeal now underway revisits many of those issues, but it also focuses on several broader constitutional arguments that Trump\u2019s lawyers believe could unravel the conviction.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-trump-s-lawyers-say-federal-law-should-have-barred-prosecution-altogether\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trump\u2019s lawyers say federal law should have barred prosecution altogether<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the most significant arguments centers on whether Bragg improperly relied on an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/house-republicans-hit-back-at-alvin-braggs-refusal-to-testify-in-trump-case\/\" title=\"House Republicans hit back at Alvin Bragg&#039;s refusal to testify in Trump ...\">alleged federal campaign finance violation<\/a> to transform what otherwise would have been misdemeanor business records charges into felony offenses.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kellen Dwyer, a constitutional and criminal law attorney at Holtzman Vogel, said that the issue appears prominently in Trump\u2019s <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/document\/1044716573\/2025-00648-People-of-the-State-of-v-People-of-the-State-of-Appellant-s-Brief-66\">96-page<\/a> appellate briefing filed last October and could prove consequential.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis is actually his lead argument, the first one in his brief, which gives you a sense that his lawyers think this is their best argument, and they\u2019re probably right about that,\u201d Dwyer told the <em>Washington Examiner<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Dwyer, federal law broadly preempts state officials from enforcing federal campaign finance laws, raising questions about whether a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/grand-jury-indicts-school-board-members-for-alleged-secret-discussions-about-racial-agenda\/\" title=\"Grand Jury Indicts School Board Members For Alleged Secret Discussions About Racial Agenda\">local district attorney<\/a> can use an alleged federal election-law violation as the foundation for a state felony prosecution.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe feds are supposed to enforce federal campaign finance laws,\u201d Dwyer said. \u201cYou don\u2019t want local elected officials trying to <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >enforce federal campaign finance law<\/a> because their incentives are very different.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-trump-s-immunity-argument\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trump\u2019s immunity argument<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump\u2019s lawyers are also arguing that the conviction cannot stand on the basis that Bragg\u2019s team introduced evidence that the <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/section\/supreme-court\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/section\/supreme-court\">Supreme Court<\/a> later determined falls within the scope of presidential immunity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Less than five weeks after Trump was convicted in Manhattan, the Supreme Court issued\u00a0its landmark <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/supreme-court\/3030301\/supreme-court-finds-some-immunity-for-presidents-complicating-trump-indictment\/\">July 2024 presidential immunity ruling<\/a>, a decision that immediately became central to his effort to overturn the verdict. The court held that presidents enjoy broad protection from criminal prosecution for official acts and that evidence related to those acts generally cannot be used in criminal proceedings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dwyer said the issue could present problems for the prosecution because jurors heard evidence involving Trump\u2019s interactions with White House aides and conduct that occurred while he was serving as president.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe prosecutor used a lot of evidence of what under <em>Trump v. United States<\/em> would be considered official presidential acts,\u201d Dwyer said of the Supreme Court\u2019s decision, which split 6-3. \u201c<em>Trump v. U.S.<\/em> is pretty clear that evidence of official acts can\u2019t be used as part of a criminal trial, so that\u2019s definitely going to be a major issue in the appeal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump\u2019s state court appeal additionally argues that Merchan should have recused himself from the case and challenges several of the judge\u2019s rulings throughout the proceedings. The case has also been <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/justice\/3025188\/trumps-defense-judges-instructions-led-guilty-verdict\/\">marred by criticism<\/a> over its convoluted jury instructions, which allowed jurors to convict without unanimously agreeing on the same underlying unlawful means supporting the felony charges.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Separate from the state appeal, Trump is also pursuing a federal court strategy that could eventually place the conviction on a path toward Supreme Court review.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last year, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ordered U.S. District Judge Alvin Hellerstein, an appointee of former President Bill Clinton, to take another look at Trump\u2019s effort to move the case from state court into federal court. The appellate panel concluded that Hellerstein failed to consider the full implications of the Supreme Court\u2019s immunity ruling when he previously rejected Trump\u2019s request.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hellerstein heard arguments over the matter again in February but has not yet issued a ruling.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-waiting-game-ensues\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Waiting game ensues<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dershowitz suggested the delays in outcomes from either court may reflect the unusual procedural posture of the criminal case against Trump.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI think it\u2019s possible that each court is waiting for the other, because a decision by one might moot the other,\u201d he said, referring to the parallel proceedings in state and federal court.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dershowitz argued that the most straightforward outcome would be for an appellate court to reverse the conviction altogether.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe cleanest track is to say this is a made-up crime, and we reverse and dismiss with prejudice,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While acknowledging that no one outside the courts knows exactly what is happening behind the scenes, Dwyer said he could understand why judges might be reluctant to be the first to issue a ruling in a case involving a former president, unresolved immunity questions, and competing state and federal proceedings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI wouldn\u2019t expect it to go that long,\u201d he said when asked whether the litigation could extend beyond Trump\u2019s presidency. \u201cThat would be pretty extraordinary for an appeal that\u2019s been fully briefed for close to a year now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/4587190\/democrats-blanche-patel-bondi-epstein-questions\/\">DEMOCRATS EYE BLANCHE AND PATEL SUBPOENAS AFTER BONDI DEFLECTS EPSTEIN QUESTIONS<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Former federal prosecutor David Gelman said neither Hellerstein nor the state\u2019s highest appeals court appears to be operating with any sense of urgency.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNobody\u2019s rushing anything,\u201d Gelman told the <em>Washington Examiner<\/em>. \u201cThe only reason they brought these charges was to stop him from becoming president of the United States.
