President-elect Donald Trump is making efforts to delay his sentencing in the hush money case as he fights to avoid the finality of his conviction before returning to the White House. Trump has turned to the Appellate Division of the state's trial court after the trial judge rejected his bid to indefinitely postpone sentencing, ordering it to proceed as scheduled on Friday.
Trump is seeking an immediate stay to prevent his sentencing while he appeals the judge's decision to uphold the verdict. Oral arguments are expected to take place before a single judge, with a decision likely to follow soon after.
