US judge denies Donald Trump's plea to delay sentencing in hush money case

India Today  

US President-elect Donald Trump on Monday lost a bid to put off his sentencing on Friday for his criminal conviction stemming from hush money paid to a porn star. Citing both presidential immunity and the demands of Trump's impending January 20 inauguration, his lawyers on Monday morning said Justice Juan Merchan's intention not to penalise Trump was "of no moment." Merchan previously rejected their argument that the US Supreme Court's July finding in a separate criminal case against Trump that presidents cannot be prosecuted for official acts meant the hush money case must be dismissed. Merchan ruled that the hush money case concerned Trump's personal conduct.
