New York Appeals Court Rejects Trump's Request To Delay Hush Money Case

According to Odaily, the New York Court of Appeals, the highest court in New York State, has rejected President-elect Donald Trump's request to delay the ruling in his criminal case related to hush money payments. On January 8, Trump's legal team filed an emergency motion with the U.S. Supreme Court to postpone the sentencing originally scheduled for January 10. The New York Times reports that the Supreme Court has asked New York State prosecutors to respond to Trump's application by the morning of January 9. This indicates that the Supreme Court may take action before the scheduled sentencing date.
