In July, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled presidents have broad immunity from criminal prosecution for “official acts.” However, they didn’t specify what those acts include.
Now, Judge Juan Merchan is set to issue a written opinion Tuesday, Nov. 12, on Trump’s request to toss his conviction. He’ll either order a new trial or dismiss the indictment entirely.
Merchan was set to make the ruling in September but put it off “to avoid any appearance” he was trying to sway this year’s election.
While Trump wasn’t president when the so-called “hush money” payment was made, he had taken office by the time his then-lawyer Michael Cohen was reimbursed for the payment.
