Supreme Court turns down Trump plea to block New York sentencing for hush money conviction

LA Times  

The Supreme Court on Thursday turned down President-elect Donald Trump’s plea to block a New York judge from sentencing him Friday on his felony conviction in a hush-money case. New York prosecutors had urged the court on Thursday to deny Trump’s “extraordinary immunity claim.” “While he was a private citizen, defendant was charged, tried, and convicted for conduct that he concedes is wholly unofficial,” they said. “William Levi, one of my former law clerks, asked me to take a call from President-elect Trump regarding qualifications to serve in a government position,” Alito said. “I agreed to discuss this matter with President-elect Trump, and he called me yesterday afternoon.” He said they did not discuss the “emergency application” regarding Trump’s New York sentencing, which had not been filed yet at the court.
