Trump's attorneys argued that his upcoming sentencing would impose an "intolerable, unconstitutional burden" on him during crucial moments as he prepares to assume office.
They contended that presidential immunity should shield presidents-elect from criminal proceedings, especially in the period between election and inauguration.
After a New York jury found Trump guilty of 34 felony counts, he became the first former U.S. president to be a convicted felon.
The court has ordered a response from prosecutors shortly before Trump's scheduled sentencing, highlighting the urgency surrounding his case.
