What is the status of Trump's appeals, and what are his chances for overturning convictions?

Trump's 2024 trials: Where they stand and what to expect

The typical politicking that goes along with his reelection bid will overlap with his ongoing – and packed – court calendar.

Trump’s 2024 trials: Where they stand and what to expect​

1. Federal classified documents case
On July 15, Cannon dismissed the case against Trump.
The Justice Department is widely expected to appeal the decision.


2. Manhattan hush money case
(I haven't found ANY reference for the current status of the appeal, so any news would be appreciated)

3. Federal J6 2020 Election Case
Trump’s lawyers are hoping a long appeals process might delay the trial date, potentially past the 2024 election.

4. Georgia 2020 Election Case
Trump’s team appealed the verdict allowing Fani Willis to stay on the case, and a hearing date for that case has been tentatively set for Oct. 4.

5. NY appeals court to hear oral arguments on Trump’s $454 million civil fraud judgment next month
So if/when the NY appeals court denies Trump's appeal, that will happen after the November election.
Then Trump can appeal to the US Supreme court? Or are there more appeal steps?

6. E. Jean Carroll’s 2nd defamation case
Trump attempted to delay the case in federal appeals court in December, but his request was denied.
Trump also attempted to countersue Carroll for defamation, but that case was dismissed.

Personal comment: I hope that the democrat's "Lawfare" gets defeated.

hush money sentencing scheduled 18 september. expect delays.

Election tampering-fraud are illegal. All these bogus investigations should be dropped, and Democrats should hang their heads in shame for subverting Democracy. MAGA

hush money sentencing scheduled 18 September. expect delays.

Turley said that there are good reasons for the appeals court overturning the 34 convictions, but I don't know the timeline and steps for the appeal process.

2. Manhattan hush money case
(I haven't found ANY reference for the current status of the appeal, so any news would be appreciated)

September 16 hearing on a motion to dismiss or for a mistrial base on inadmissibility of some evidence being introduced as being subject to Presidential immunity being "official acts".

However that isn't expected to go well for Trump as no one can explain how paying off a porn star with funds from your private business is an "official act" of the Office of the President or how comments made in social media and to a staff member regarding paying off said porn star is an "official act" of the Office of the President.

After that sentencing for his 34 felony convictions is scheduled for September 18th. However current feelings are that sentencing will likely be delayed.

Personal comment: I hope that the democrat's "Lawfare" gets defeated.

Personal comment: Holding criminals responsible for their actions isn't "Lawfare". Given CV34FPOTUS45's history its Karma for all the lawfare he's instituted over the decades.

Correct. Exactly the basis for Trump's Fixer being convicted in court and the criminal actions Trump was attempting to hide/conceal through the felonious falsification of business records.

i almost expect a sentence to good to appeal, maybe a huge suspended sentence contingent on lawful behavior by himself and his followers through the election process. something he really should agree to, and be supported by his followers as well?

As far as the NY hush money case, Trump has been convicted. He has yet to be sentenced. Supposed to be sentenced in July but that's been put off. Until he's sentenced, he can't appeal.
Cannon dismissed the docs case. It has already been appealed. Given Cannon has been slapped down by appeals courts twice now, chances are high that it will be reinstated.
The J6th case is back in Chutkin's court so it looks like that one could move forward.

This isn't lawfare. This is Trump...being Trump. He's corrupt and incompetent.
The real question here is, at what point, do you abandon someone who has no interest in anyone but himself?

Such a a sentence and probation will probably include no association with other criminals.

Something it might be hard for CV34FPOTUS45 to comply with.

Technically I don't think the actual appeal has been filed yet.

Smith filed a notice of appeal which is an indication of his intent.

trump has been the most litigious wager of "lawfare " that the world has ever seen. he is about to do what napoleon and alexander only dreamed of, and he is only feeding an army of lawyers.

what a country! he conguers the world with a technicality on appeal.

Well, whether it's an appeal or a notice of appeal (looks like here, it's the same thing), an appeals court is going to hear it.

Oh, yes agree 100%.

I’m just saying I don’t think we have the appeal filing yet to see exactly the challenges are to Cannon’s ridiculous dismissal.

1. I'm sure judge Merchan won't dismiss the case, not because some of the evidence is illegal, but because the judge is a political hack. As soon as the case gets out of NY it should be dismissed. Read this link for details.

The judge, the charges, the evidence, and the instructions, are all legally incorrect and appealable.

2. Taking a presidential candidate to trial for an expired misdemeanor and then calling it a felony because it supposedly covered-up another crime, a secret crime that wasn't even charged, is LAWFARE, misusing the legal process for political gain, the US is officially a Banana Republic.

Trump wins the election…..All cases get dropped
Trump loses…….He goes to jail

Why would all cases get dropped if he wins the election?
If he loses there is no need to send him to jail.
Then again, the democrat DAs would make him waste his money on lawyers during the appeal process.

Trump want taken to trial on an expired misdemeanor, he was charged with a felony which had not expired.

The misdemeanor version is a completely different law.

If Trump wins he gets to pick his prosecutor. He will name an AG that will decide not to pursue charges
States can’t try a sitting President

Trump wasn't taken to trial on an expired misdemeanor, he was charged with a felony which had not expired.

Not to rehash our previous discussions, but Trump was never charged with felony. There was no "List of Particulars" as required by NY Law. There is no super secret crime that was covered up by the perfectly legal NDA with Stormy.

Now Bragg is bringing a case that has taken years to develop and millions of dollars in litigation costs for all parties. That is all over a crime from before the 2016 election that is a misdemeanor under state law that had already expired under the statute of limitations.

Don't listen to pundits (which is what Turley is).

Try reading the court documents.

Trump was not charged with an statute of limitations expired misdemeanor which would be New York Penal Code Section 175.05, he was charged with a felony well within the statute of limitations under New York State Penal Code 175.10.

Don't believe what others tell you, verify actual records to the greatest extent possible. Takes more effort but you end up incorrect less.
