An appeal of Donald's historic conviction is almost certain Trump in the money-for-hush case in New York is likely to focus on porn star Stormy Daniels' spicy testimony about her alleged sexual relationship with the former US president, Reuters reported, citing legal experts. >
According to experts, the defense in the appeal of the sentence may also focus on the unusual legal arguments used by the prosecutors in the case, but Trump will face a long period of obscurity.
Any appeal against the sentence is unlikely to be decided before the Nov. 5 presidential election, when Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, will face off against Democratic President Joe Biden.
Twelve jurors found Trump guilty of falsifying documents to cover up a $130,000 payment by his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, to Stormy Daniels in return for her silence before the 2016 election about an alleged 2006 sexual encounter.
