Trump Moves to Cancel His Sentencing on Friday

Politico: “In court papers filed Monday, Trump’s lawyers signaled that they will ask a New York appeals court to toss out the jury’s May verdict, which found Trump guilty of 34 felony counts of falsifying business documents.”

“In his appeal, Trump intends to argue that he is protected by presidential immunity — arguments that the trial judge, Justice Juan Merchan, rejected. But Trump says the sentencing hearing must be halted while higher courts weigh the immunity claims.”
