The Supreme Court is wrapping up its coverage of the historic decision by the US Supreme Court to grant presidents partial immunity from criminal prosecution.

This decision has an immediate impact on some of Donald Trump's legal cases, and it will have lasting impacts on the office of the President of the United States.

A jury unanimously found that Trump had broken the law when he falsely recorded reimbursements for payouts to an adult film star to keep the truth about the documents' nature away from the public.

Trump had made those reimbursements during his first year in the White House.

Prominent appellate attorney in New York Mark Zauderer says the US Supreme Court decision likely won't affect the conviction, said Mark Zauderer, a prominent appellate attorney in New York.

The allegations in the New York fraud case in which Trump was convicted seem clearly to relate to unofficial conduct by Trump, none of which would seem to involve his official duties.
