Donald Trump's trial in the Stormy Daniels hush-money case could be directly impacted by an appeal from convicted sex offender Harvey Weinstein, according to the former Hollywood producer's lawyer.Weinstein is arguing he didn't receive a fair trial because of the presiding judge's Sandoval ruling; this meant, if he had personally testified in person, prosecutors could have raised 28 other cases of alleged inappropriate behavior in court.
Weinstein has been seeking to overturn his New York conviction, saying the case was prejudiced against him due to the judge's Sandoval ruling. This is so called after the 1974 trial of accused murderer Augustin Sandoval, who sought to put restrictions on what other claims about him could be brought up in court to avoid prejudicing the case.
