Donald Trump has filed a motion to dismiss his criminal hush money case and vacate his felony conviction of 34 counts On the basis that the trial was tainted with evidence, and witnesses barred by Supreme Court on account of the presidential immunity. Donald Trump’s lawyers allege that the proceedings relating to grand jury and trial are tainted by evidence that relate to official action including the former White House aides. They argue that it constituted State’s abuse of otherwise legitimate evidence to plug up the lacuna in its case and that the case violates the constitution’s fundamental tenets thus should be thrown out. Scholars of law also have questioned the applicability of the Supreme court’s decision to the New York case because the latter focuses more on what Trump was doing when he was only a candidate for presidency and not a president. ⚖️
