The Supreme Court could still stop the sentencing from moving forward Friday as scheduled.
Southern Winter Storm: Up To 10 Inches Could Fall In Texas As Warnings And Watches Spread—Here’s What To KnowNew York’s highest court rejected President-elect Donald Trump ’s effort to stop his sentencing in his hush money case on Thursday, multiple, keeping the sentencing on track to take place Friday in New York unless the Supreme Court stops it—though Trump will likely face few, if any, penalties, if it goes ahead, and is all but certain not to be sentenced to prison.
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.It’s unclear when the Supreme Court will rule on Trump’s request to pause his sentencing, though a ruling is likely to come on Thursday after prosecutors file a response to Trump’s request Thursday morning.
