There's no requirement that he was previously convicted of insurrection - that's a separate charge and carries a higher bar. The constitution only requires that the court concludes as part of this case that he was involved in an insurrection. And there's a wealth of evidence showing that he was so the courts will almost certainly come to that conclusion.
