Trump Seeks to Block MSNBC Coverage of Jan. 10 Sentencing in Hush Money Case
Legal Maneuvers and Implications
Donald Trump wants to block his Jan. 10 sentencing in the hush money case as he appeals Judge Juan Merchan’s rulings rejecting his attempts to overturn his New York state guilty verdicts for falsifying business records. Due to the fact that further criminal proceedings are automatically stayed by operation of federal constitutional law, the court will lack authority to proceed with sentencing.
Next Steps in Trump's Case
- Trump's lawyers wrote in a filing dated Sunday and made public Monday.
- On Friday, Merchan rejected Trump’s latest motion to dismiss.
- Sentencing is set for Jan. 10, with no intention of incarceration stated by the judge.
