Donald Trump has 34 felony convictions, all stemming from the New York criminal case involving falsified business records related to a hush-money payment during the 2016 presidential campaign. A Manhattan jury found Trump guilty on all 34 counts in May 2024, making him the first U.S. president to be convicted of a crime.
The case centered on a $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels, which was made shortly before the 2016 election. Prosecutors alleged that Trump later falsified business records to disguise reimbursements to his former attorney, Michael Cohen, who had made the payment. The jury concluded that the business records had been falsified and returned guilty verdicts on all 34 counts.
The 34 convictions represent 34 separate felony counts within one criminal case, rather than 34 different criminal cases. Trump has consistently denied wrongdoing and has argued that the prosecution was politically motivated. He has also challenged the conviction through the appeals process.
Latest Update on Trump’s Felony Convictions
As of the latest update in August 2026, Trump’s 34 felony convictions remain on the record. His appeal is still active, and prosecutors are continuing to oppose his efforts to overturn the verdict. In late July, the Manhattan district attorney’s office argued before a New York appellate court that Trump should not receive presidential immunity for the private conduct underlying the conviction.
Trump was sentenced in January 2025 to an unconditional discharge, meaning he received no prison sentence, probation, fine or other criminal penalty. However, the absence of a punitive sentence did not erase the convictions.
Therefore, the clearest answer remains: Donald Trump has 34 felony convictions, and those convictions have not been overturned as of the latest update.
