President Trump appeals New York criminal conviction
President Trump is appealing his New York criminal conviction. When Donald Trump took the oath of office last week, he was the first person with a criminal record to become president. But he wants to erase the verdict. His lawyers have filed a notice of appeal, asking New York’s mid-level appeals court to overturn his conviction on 34 counts of falsifying business records. The Manhattan district attorney’s office, which prosecuted the case, will have a chance to respond in court papers.
