President-elect Donald Trump requested a delay on Monday of Friday's sentencing in his hush money case while they appeal the previous ruling that upheld the guilty verdict.
Trump’s legal team is asking the state appeals court to reverse Judge Juan M. Merchan’s decision to proceed with the sentencing on Friday.
Merchan has rejected Trump's attempt to dismiss the verdict and the indictment based on presidential immunity grounds.
Merchan said he doesn't intend to sentence to Trump to jail time.

Merchan's little side show needs to be stopped. (On a side note, he needs to be removed from the bench and prosecuted for corruption).
