USA Today reports:
President-elect Donald Trump’s Nov. 26 sentencing date in his New York hush money case has been cancelled as the judge considers how to proceed in light of Trump’s election victory.
On Nov. 10, after his victory, Trump lawyer Emil Bove argued in an email to Judge Juan Merchan that the case should also be dismissed based on the election, in order to “avoid unconstitutional impediments to President Trump’s ability to govern.”
The sentencing cancellation was listed on the New York criminal court docket as of Tuesday morning.
