President Trump's Hush Money Case ADJOURNED!!!🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
The sentencing, which was scheduled for next week, was called off without explanation on Tuesday in a brief note by the court. The update came on the same day Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg faces a deadline to offer the court his recommendation for how the case should proceed.
Justice Juan Merchan, who presided over Trump’s trial earlier this year, was initially poised to rule last week on whether the Supreme Court's July 1 presidential immunity decision precluded the sentencing from going forward. He delayed his decision by one week to give prosecutors and the defense team more time to explain how they think the next steps should be.
Several questions still linger despite the case's adjournment, such as whether the court will agree to dismiss the case outright. Many legal experts have said they could not foresee sentencing taking place at this juncture, with Trump poised to reenter the Oval Office by Jan. 20.
