The saga of Trump’s hush money case isn’t over yet: Sentencing date nears

04-Sep -2024

Republican presidential candidate and former President Donald Trump was hoping to delay his New York sentencing on 34 felony counts until after the Nov. 5 election, but a federal judge said Tuesday that he wouldn't block the case from moving forward.

New York State Judge Juan Merchan is set to sentence Trump on Sept. 18 in the Manhattan hush money case, after a New York City criminal conviction on May 30. The jury unanimously determined that the 2024 Republican presidential candidate falsified business records to cover up $130,000 in payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels, which could have affected his 2016 election campaign.

The original July 11 sentencing date was pushed back after the Supreme Court delivered its ruling on presidential immunity in July. Based on prior reporting by USA TODAY, Merchan has said he will rule on the immunity argument on Sept. 16, just two days before the scheduled sentencing.

When are other key dates in Trump's legal challenges?

Along with Trump's expected sentencing date, here's a timeline for other court dates and appearances in his other cases this month:

September 5th: U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan will hold a status conference with prosecutors and Trump's lawyers to determine how the federal election case, in which he allegedly attempted to subvert the 2020 election results, should proceed.

September 7th: Trump's team will appear in court in an attempt to overturn a civil court ruling that found Trump liable for sexually abusing and defaming writer E. Jean Carroll in 1996, where he was ordered to pay a $5 million

September 16: Merchan will decide whether to grant Trump's motion to throw out the verdict from his Manhattan hush-money case. The former president argues that the Supreme Court's recent ruling on presidential immunity invalidates evidence used during the trial. If his motion isn't granted, Trump's team will push for the sentencing to be moved to give him more time to figure out his next steps.
