Prosecutors defer to judge on Trump bid to delay sentencing in hush-money case
Briefly

The prosecutors acknowledged Trump's right to appeal the ruling on his immunity from prosecution, stating they defer to the court on whether a delay of sentencing is warranted.
Trump's defense lawyers claimed there wasn’t sufficient time to appeal the ruling regarding presidential immunity before the scheduled sentencing, which they argued was an attempt at election interference.
Justice Merchan is set to rule on Trump's motion to overturn the conviction based on the Supreme Court’s decision regarding presidential immunity on 16 September.
While the prosecution maintains that the case is about Trump's personal conduct, they recognized that the outcome of the potential appeal could affect the upcoming sentencing.
