Judge to Decide on Trump's Immunity in Hush Money Conviction

The ruling could overturn President-elect Trump's historic conviction or lead to sentencing later this month.

Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan will rule on whether Trump's conviction for falsifying business records should be overturned due to presidential immunity.
Trump's conviction involves 34 felony counts related to payments made to silence allegations during his 2016 presidential campaign.
If the conviction stands, Trump could face sentencing on November 26, with potential penalties including up to four years in prison.
Trump's legal team argues that the conviction should be set aside following a Supreme Court ruling affirming presidential immunity for official acts.
The outcome of this case is part of a broader landscape of legal challenges facing Trump, including cases related to classified documents and election interference.
