New York Judge Denies Trump's Sentencing Postponement Request

President-elect Donald Trump speaks

A New York judge has denied former President Donald Trump's request to postpone his sentencing, which is scheduled for this Friday, while he appeals. The decision was made in response to Trump's legal team seeking to delay the sentencing process as they pursue an appeal.

The ruling comes after Trump was found guilty of multiple charges, including fraud and tax evasion, following a lengthy trial. The judge's decision to move forward with the sentencing indicates that the court is not inclined to grant Trump any further delays in the legal proceedings.

Trump's legal team argued that postponing the sentencing would allow them more time to prepare their appeal and present their case effectively. However, the judge determined that the sentencing should proceed as scheduled, citing the need for timely resolution in the case.
