Trump appealed Justice Merchan's denial to postpone sentencing after being found guilty of 34 felony counts for falsifying business records. The court ruled that the sentence should proceed without delay.
Merchan's sentence of 'unconditional discharge' means Trump won't serve time or pay fines, allowing him to maintain his status without probation after facing potential prison time.
The U.S. Supreme Court allowed Trump's sentencing to go forward, stating that evidentiary violations in his trial could be addressed in appeals, which 'relatively insubstantial' burdened his responsibilities.
Five Supreme Court justices ruled against Trump's claim for presidential immunity concerning his felony convictions, affirming that he could appeal his convictions post-sentencing.
