Judge again denies Trump's request to move hush-money case to federal court

Politique

U. S. District Judge Alvin Hellerstein on 29 August rejected President Donald Trump's third petition to transfer his New York hush-money conviction to federal court.

The decision followed a similar denial on 28 August, when the judge also rejected an earlier request and Trump's legal team filed an appeal. The judge said the arguments were insufficient and unrelated to the president's official duties. Earlier, the judge had dismissed the prior petition, prompting the appeal that was filed by Trump's lawyers.
