The U.S. Supreme Court denied President-elect Donald Trump's bid to delay his sentencing, affirming his status as a convicted felon when he takes office.
In a divided ruling, justices rejected Trump's claims of immunity, with significant support from both conservative and liberal members of the court.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg argued for prompt sentencing to prevent future legal complications as Trump transitions into the presidency.
Judge Juan Merchan is expected to impose an unconditional discharge during the sentencing, which will keep the felony conviction without additional penalties.
