In May, Trump became the first former U.S. president to be criminally convicted over his involvement in the hush money case.
Prosecutors in Donald Trump's hush money case are set to file paperwork on Tuesday outlining how they believe the case should proceed following his victory in the 2024 election.Three other criminal cases involving Trump are facing delays following his election victory and could potentially be dismissed. These include the classified documents case, as well as state and federal cases in which he is accused of election interference. Trump denies wrongdoing in all cases.
Trump's lawyers argued over the weekend that there are 'strong reasons for the requested stay, and eventually dismissal of the case in the interests of justice.'Judge Merchan has also delayed Trump's sentencing until 26 November. In September, he said the decision was made 'to avoid any appearance – however unwarranted – that the proceeding has been affected by or seeks to affect the approaching presidential election in which the defendant is a candidate'.
