Trump's Legal Battles: Hush Money Case Dismissal and Claimed Immunity
TL;DR Summary
Manhattan prosecutors are opposing Donald Trump's attempt to dismiss his criminal hush-money case, arguing that his status as president-elect does not grant him immunity from prosecution. They contend that Trump's presidency does not shield him from criminal charges related to actions taken before his term. Trump's legal team has cited presidential immunity and compared his case to Joe Biden's pardon of his son, Hunter. Prosecutors suggest deferring proceedings until after Trump's presidency rather than dismissing the case, which involves falsifying business records related to a payment to Stormy Daniels.
