Prosecutors Oppose Dismissal of Trump Hush Money Conviction
Manhattan prosecutors oppose dismissing President-elect Trump’s hush money conviction, but suggest delaying sentencing until after his second term to balance constitutional interests. While acknowledging the unique legal questions raised by his presidency, they maintain the conviction’s validity. Trump’s legal team, however, claims this is a victory and seeks a complete dismissal, citing the Supreme Court’s decision on presidential immunity. The judge will ultimately decide whether to dismiss the case, delay it, or proceed with sentencing.
