Hush-money case | Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito says he spoke with Trump

The Hindu  

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito spoke with President-elect Donald Trump about a former law clerk the day before Mr. Trump went to the High Court in a push to delay the sentencing in his New York hush-money case, the justice said Wednesday, January 8, 2025. Mr. Alito said he took the call Tuesday afternoon from Mr. Trump at the request of his former law clerk, William Levi, to recommend him for a job in the upcoming administration. Carrie Severino, president of JCN, a conservative group that has boosted support for Trump's judicial nominees, said in a social media post that the call was a “simple reference check” amplified to “smear" Mr. Alito. Mr. Trump's attorneys asked the Supreme Court to delay his sentencing in New York, arguing it could disrupt the presidential transition and would violate the high court's previous ruling on immunity for former presidents in another case against Trump.
