This was expected. The New York Court of appeals has denied President-elect Trump’s request to delay his sentencing in the phony hush money case.
Here’s the news via ABC News:
The New York Court of Appeals, the highest court in the state, has denied President-elect Donald Trump’s request to halt his sentencing Friday in his criminal hush money case.
Trump on Wednesday launched an eleventh-hour request to New York’s highest court to pause the hush money case, on the same day that he also asked the U.S. Supreme Court to halt his sentencing.
Trump is scheduled to be sentenced Friday after he was found guilty in May on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to a hush money payment made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels in order to boost his electoral prospects in the 2016 presidential election.
The Supreme Court’s ruling on this is the big one we are waiting on now and I am not confident that will go Trump’s way.
