  • An appeals court has rejected Donald Trump's request to delay his sentencing related to a criminal hush money conviction in New York.

  • Judge Merchan stated that Trump's lawyers failed to present any new arguments for halting the sentencing on January 10.
  • The judge emphasized that the jury’s decision was based on evidence that remains prosecutable, regardless of Trump's presidential immunity claims.
