The New York judge, Juan M. Merchan, determined that the prosecution against Mr. Trump revolved around his personal conduct rather than official presidential duties.
Prosecutors highlighted that the scheme orchestrated by Trump occurred in a personal and political crisis before his presidency, thereby separating it from official actions.
The ruling not only upholds the prosecution's stance but also signals the court's view that personal conduct cannot be shielded by presidential immunity.
