New York court hears Trump’s appeal of 34-count conviction.
On Nov. 5, a New York appellate court heard arguments in Donald Trump’s appeal of his 2024 conviction on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. Trump’s lawyers argued that federal campaign-finance law preempts the state prosecution, raised presidential-immunity issues and challenged the jury instructions. CBS News reported that prosecutors responded that federal courts had rejected the preemption argument twice. A five-judge panel questioned lawyers for both sides. Axios reported on Nov. 6 that the court had not ruled, leaving the appeal unresolved.
