TL;DR Summary

President-elect Donald Trump is urging a New York judge to dismiss his conviction in a hush money case, arguing that his return to the White House grants him immunity from prosecution. Trump's lawyers claim that the case's continuation would interfere with his ability to govern and cite constitutional and legal precedents for dismissal.

The legal proceedings present unprecedented challenges regarding presidential immunity.
