The Supreme Court denied Trump’s emergency bid to halt sentencing in New York. The five-justice majority deemed the sentencing burden on transition responsibilities to be 'relatively insubstantial'.
The court’s decision allows for the sentencing to proceed as planned, indicating that justices Roberts, Sotomayor, Barrett, Kagan, and Jackson could not justify delaying the process.
Despite Trump's attempts to contest the sentencing before the Supreme Court, the justices opted to stay out, illustrating a notable independence from the pressures surrounding the case.
The former president's hope for a more favorable ruling from the Supreme Court was not realized, with justice’s independence emphasized just before his upcoming inauguration.
