According to a Fox News report, Judge Juan Merchan has delayed the sentencing of former President Donald Trump in his New York City criminal hush money case until September after a request from Trump’s team.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg did not oppose the request.

From Fox News:

Trump on Monday moved to overturn his criminal conviction in the Manhattan case after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that a former president has substantial immunity for official acts committed while in office. He also requested to delay his sentencing, which was set for July 11 — just days before the Republican National Convention where he is set to be formally nominated the 2024 GOP presidential nominee.

Bragg, on Tuesday morning, said Trump’s request to toss the verdict was without merit, but did not oppose the request to delay sentencing.

Merchan on Tuesday afternoon delayed Trump’s sentencing date to Sept. 18 at 10:00 a.m.

“The July 11, 2024, sentencing date is therefore vacated. The Court’s decision will be rendered off-calendar on September 6, 2024, and the matter is adjourned to September 18, 2024, at 10:00 AM for the imposition of sentence, if such is still necessary, or other proceedings,” Merchan wrote in a letter to Trump attorneys and New York prosecutors.
