Donald Trump has urged the Supreme Court to intervene in his hush money case in New York despite the likelihood of this happening being extremely low.
despite legal experts suggesting the likelihood of this happening soon, or at all, remaining low at this point.
“Trump has a lot of arguments on appeal, but most of those are state arguments,” former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani told the“The federal ones would have to really relate to a procedural or more likely a substantive due process. So, you know, things like a change of venue or the judge’s failure to disqualify himself on some of his daughter’s political activity, maybe he can make those arguments,” Rahmani said.
The typical appeals process involves filing an appeal with the New York State Appellate Division. If unsuccessful there, Trump could appeal to the New York Court of Appeals, the state’s highest court. Assuming it’s a close election in November, Dershowitz said, “Would anyone blame Donald Trump at that point for saying, ‘This is an unfair election’?” Dershowitz added that he hopes Trump’s attorneys seek to “expedite the sentencing and expedite the appeal,” suggesting that since prosecutors rushed the case to trial, “you have to agree to rush to get a potential appellate reversal.”
