Judge keeps hush-money case in New York, rejects federal transfer bid

Judge Alvin Hellerstein denied Trump's bid to move the New York hush-money case to federal court for a third time, ruling the presidential-immunity argument isn’t new or legally sufficient; Trump plans an appeal. The case concerns a $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels to influence the 2016 election; Trump was convicted in 2024 on 34 counts of falsifying business records and received an unconditional discharge in 2025, though the conviction remains on his record. The ruling references the 2024 Supreme Court immunity decision and a 2nd Circuit reconsideration order in evaluating whether the acts were official presidential acts.

Trump has appealed, and while the case remains in state court, the ruling follows a prior appellate direction to reassess in light of immunity rulings.

New York Prosecutors to Decide Future of Trump's Hush Money Case

Prosecutors are set to inform a judge whether the criminal hush money case against Donald Trump should proceed to sentencing or be dismissed following his recent electoral victory.

Meanwhile, other federal cases against Trump may be dismissed due to his upcoming presidency, as the DOJ typically does not prosecute sitting presidents.
