Trump's lawyers are requesting the postponement of his sentencing hearing scheduled for Friday, citing an ongoing appeal against his 34-count felony conviction. They argue that constitutional protections and a previous Supreme Court ruling on immunity preclude sentencing while the appeal is in progress.
for his 34-count felony conviction , lawyers for Trump now want to nix the sentencing hearing while an appeal is underway.
In a dig at Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, Blanche and Bove wrote Monday that the case should be dismissed and the sentencing immediately halted because the entire matter was “flawed from the very beginning, centered around the wrongful actions and false claims of a disgraced, disbarred serial-liar attorney” eager to violate Trump’s due process rights.
This type of sentence, which imposes no fines or prison time, is rare, but when applied, it is typically because there is no practical punishment available.Trump’s lawyers asked for a response from the judge by 2 p.m. on Monday. If there is none, his lawyers said they will file a request for an emergency appellate review.
