Donald Trump arrested

Sharing is Caring!

A New York federal judge on Wednesday rejected former President Donald Trump’s efforts to move his New York criminal case to federal court.

U.S. District Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein, nominated by President Bill Clinton in 1998, said the former president failed two main components needed to justify his move of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s case from state to federal court.

“Trump has failed to show that the conduct charged by the Indictment is for or relating to any act performed by or for the President under color of the official acts of a President. Trump also has failed to show that he has a colorable federal defense to the Indictment,” Hellerstein wrote.

The case was remanded back to the New York Supreme Court, keeping it on track for a March 25 trial.
