Trump Seeks Delay in New York Hush Money Case Sentencing Until Presidential Immunity Appeals Resolved
Jan 6, 2025, 03:31 PM
Donald Trump has filed a motion to delay his sentencing in the New York hush money case, scheduled for Friday, Jan. 10, 2025. The motion argues for a postponement until his appeals regarding presidential immunity are resolved. Trump's legal team contends that the sentencing should be vacated and all further deadlines suspended pending the outcome of these appeals. The case involves Trump's conviction on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to a $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels, which he claims was to silence her about an alleged affair before the 2016 election. Trump has denied the affair and maintains that the case should be dismissed. Judge Juan Merchan, who is overseeing the case, has previously indicated that Trump would not face jail time, suggesting an unconditional discharge as a potential outcome. Trump's lawyers are seeking a response from Merchan by Monday at 2 p.m. to allow time for emergency appellate review if necessary.
