Trump will be arguing that his conviction on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records be thrown out because of the Supreme Court decision.
Tuesday, July 2, 2024 3:44PMThe Manhattan district attorney's office said Tuesday it would not oppose former President Trump's request to, a move that will almost certainly delay Trump's sentencing, which is currently set for July 11.
"Although we believe defendant's arguments to be without merit, we do not oppose his request for leave to file and his putative request to adjourn sentencing pending determination of his motion," assistant district attorney Josh Steinglass wrote in a letter to Judge Juan Merchan.Trump will be arguing that his conviction on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records be thrown out because of the Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity.
If a delay is indeed granted, it would push a sentencing decision past the Republican National Convention, which will kick off in Milwaukee on July 15. That means that Trump, now the presumptive GOP nominee, could become the Republican presidential candidate while it remains unknown what sentence he will face.
