The Manhattan district attorney's office will not oppose delaying former President Trump's sentencing, instead leaving the decision to the judge, amid Trump's request citing an impending Supreme Court ruling.
Prosecutors emphasize significant public safety and logistical considerations surrounding Trump's court appearances, expressing concerns that appeals could disrupt the necessary preparations for his sentencing.
Judge Juan Merchan will make a ruling on Trump's immunity claim just two days before the sentencing, indicating that appeals could arise at the last moment.
In their response to Trump's arguments, prosecutors categorically rejected claims regarding the judge’s impartiality, backing their position with a state ethics group's guidance.
