BREAKING 🚨 "New York judge Juan Merchan has allowed former President Donald Trump to seek the dismissal of his 'hush money' criminal case following his victory in the presidential election.
Trump had been scheduled for sentencing on November 26, but Manhattan prosecutors requested deferring proceedings until after his upcoming presidential term ends in January 2029.
Trump's legal team argues that continuing the case during his presidency would create "unconstitutional impediments" to governance. The Manhattan District Attorney's office opposes dismissal but has agreed to allow Trump to present his arguments through written motions.
The judge has set a December 2 deadline for Trump to file his motion and a December 9 deadline for the prosecution's response."
