A federal appeals court ruled Monday that President Donald Trump's tax returns must be turned over to Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance, who had subpoenaed the documents from Trump's accounting firm as part of an investigation into the pre-election payoffs to two women who alleged affairs with Trump.
Trump is likely to appeal the ruling to the Supreme Court. Trump had earlier lost the initial case before a federal district court. The three-judge panel wrote in their decision that"any presidential immunity from state criminal process does not extend to investigative steps like the grand jury subpoena at issue here," affirming the lower court's ruling on that question.

If trump is clean, he would not go to this extreme... you know what he hides!
It will go to his handpicked court now, courts are packed all the way down due to Moscow Mitch and his work it’s all that gets accomplished in the senate, judges appointed to support Trump
The legal argument is meant to obfuscate the admission of criminality. If the argument is that the President is immune from prosecution his lawyers must have a reason to assume criminality.
But will the Supreme Court even hear this case?
Trumpetteco Why doesn't Trump just have them sealed the way Obama had all his documents sealed?
This could come down to Roberts as tie breaker. The right will likely support Trump on this.

Something to watch. If SCOTUS upholds the decision of the lower court, it will be a wonderful example of the Judiciary applying checks to maintain balance. Of course, if the Supreme Court overturns the decision, that tells us Trump owns 2/3 branches of government. Yikes!
TODAYshow Disgusting that our Supreme Court has to spend time deciding if Trump has to provide his tax return to NY. This issue has gone far enough in the courts and he should just provide them and move on. Why is this such a big deal? What’s he hiding?
Notice how trump continues to hide everything that he claims are perfectly innocent. The Ukraine phone call. His taxes. All the things he claims that would prove his innocence. Isn’t that what you would do?
Bet Trump counting on 2 justices he put in Supreme Court remember one justice who told the black driver it was more important to freeze to death in essence his life wasnt worth anything compared to the truck the other said he never raped or showed his you know what to anyone
