Trump fails again to overturn conviction for hush money to porn actress

dnoticias.pt29 August 2026 at 02:04

A US federal judge again rejected Donald Trump's attempt to overturn his hush money conviction, denying the request to transfer the case to a federal court and dismiss it based on presidential immunity.

Trump was convicted in May 2024 on 34 counts of falsifying business records to conceal a $130,000 payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels.

The payment was intended to silence Daniels' allegation of a sexual encounter with Trump a decade earlier, which threatened to harm his 2016 presidential campaign.
