Trump Aims to Delay Criminal Sentencing in New York Ahead of Inauguration

Credited from: NYTIMES

  • Donald Trump plans a legal attempt to delay his criminal sentencing in New York, scheduled just before his presidential inauguration.
  • His lawyers filed a motion requesting the judge to postpone the sentencing, which is unlikely given the judge's previous scheduling.
  • The filing indicates that if the request is denied, Trump will seek an emergency appellate review to intervene.
  • Trump is attempting to avoid the *symbolic significance* of being sentenced, as this would officially label him a felon.
  • His legal team is also challenging previous rulings, citing a recent Supreme Court judgment on presidential immunity as a basis for their case.
