In a bench trial the judge has the final say on guilt or innocence. In a jury trial the jury has. And the jury unanimously convicted Trump, therefore he's a convicted felon because the charges were felonies. The only thing left undetermined is his sentence.If a judge finds you guilty you are guilty.
A guilty plea or a jury verdict has to be accepted by the court.
That's why it's called "adjudication"- because a judge has to make a final determination one way or the other.
This case is still open. Until Merchan enters a final judgement, it remains open.
You are too uninformed to debate.
