President-elect Donald Trump asked the Supreme Court on Wednesday to intervene and pause his sentencing in New York, his attorneys claiming that being sentenced for his felony conviction would be a “grave injustice.”
Trump’s attorneys appealed to the Supreme Court after a New York appeals court refused to postpone his sentencing, which is set for Friday. Trump’s attorneys claimed that action from his allies on the Supreme Court was necessary to guard against "harm to the institution of the presidency and the operations of the federal government.”
