Next November 26 you will receive your sentence in the only trial that managed to advance in the middle of the presidential campaign, linked to the manipulation of accounting data in New York. On the other hand, there are four cases that remain open.

In addition, if you receive a conviction for the cause dealt with by the falsification of business records, It was impossible to avoid prison.
However, having won the election, it is almost certain that Trump will avoid jail for at least the next four years. This is due to a former federal banwhich state authorities are expected to respect, of prosecuting a sitting president.
