The Supreme Court rejected Trump's last-ditch effort to pause it Thursday evening.
Southern Winter Storm: Up To 10 Inches Could Fall In Texas As Warnings And Watches Spread—Here’s What To Knowto pause it, the first-ever sentencing of a former president on criminal charges—though Trump will likely face few, if any, penalties, and is all but certain not to be sentenced to prison.Trump’s sentencing is scheduled for 9:30 a.m. EST on Jan. 10, after Manhattan-based Judge Juan Merchan issued an order on Jan.
Merchan has all but ruled out sentencing Trump to prison, however, noting Friday his “inclination to not impose any sentence of incarceration” and acknowledging prosecutors have admitted putting Trump in prison would not be “practicable” given his impending presidency. The judge said granting Trump an “unconditional discharge” seems to be the most “viable solution,” which means Trump will still be convicted of the crimes, but will not have any penalties levied against him.While Merchan has suggested he’s likely to grant an unconditional discharge, his final ruling on Trump’s sentence could be different.
