Judge postpones Trump sentencing for a third time

A New York judge has delayed Donald Trump’s scheduled sentencing as his attorneys continue to push for his conviction to be tossed out.

Trump originally was going to appear in court for sentencing on 26 November.

He was convicted on 34 felony fraud counts in May.

His attorneys argue his conviction should be thrown out on the grounds of presidential immunity, and because it would interfere with his duties as president.

The Manhattan District Attorney, who prosecuted Trump, plans to oppose Trump’s effort, but has suggested to the judge that he might wait to sentence the president-elect until after his second term in office.

Justice Juan Merchan has paused all proceedings until he hears briefs from both parties, which are due 9 December.
