NEW YORK — A federal judge on Tuesday swiftly rejected Donald Trump's request to intervene in his New York hush money criminal case, thwarting the former president's latest bid to overturn his felony conviction and delay his sentencing.
“This Court does not have jurisdiction to hear Mr. Trump’s arguments concerning the propriety of the New York trial,” Hellerstein wrote in a four-page decision. Messages seeking comment were left with Trump's lawyers and the Manhattan district attorney's office, which prosecuted the case. Merchan has said he will rule Sept. 16 on Trump’s motion to overturn the verdict. His decision on delaying sentencing has been expected in the coming days.
Trump’s lawyers have argued that sentencing Trump as scheduled, just two days after Merchan's expected immunity decision, would not give him enough time to weigh the next steps — including a possible appeal — if Merchan rules to uphold the verdict.
