Trump's golf resort liquor licenses may be one reason he's fighting to block a no-jail hush-money sentence
Briefly

"Over the past week, lawyers for President-elect Donald Trump have fought in four courthouses to make his Friday hush-money sentencing date disappear - and safeguarding the liquor licenses at his three New Jersey golf courses may be one reason for that effort."
"However, the instant he becomes a sentenced felon, Trump will have received what Jersey liquor officials consider to be a final judgment of conviction, which would allow the state's Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control to resume last year's efforts to revoke his licenses."
"In anticipation of a hush-money sentencing initially set for July 11, 2024 the ABC gave the two clubs interim permits to continue selling and serving alcohol and set a July 19, 2024 date for a Trenton liquor license revocation hearing."
"As Trump continued to win sentencing delays over the past half year, the ABC, run by Jersey's attorney general's office, has kept those revocation hearing plans on ice."
