TL;DR Summary

An appeals court is set to hear Donald Trump's challenge to move his criminal hush money case from state to federal court, arguing that presidential immunity and recent Supreme Court rulings should influence the case's jurisdiction. Trump was convicted last year on 34 felony counts related to hush money payments and business record falsification, with his legal team seeking to transfer the case to federal court, potentially affecting the case's outcome and Trump's ability to pardon himself. The decision could also lead to a Supreme Court review.
