Trump loses bid to delay sentencing in hush money case as he appeals
U.S. President-elect Donald Trump asked a New York judge on Monday to delay his Jan. 10 sentencing on his criminal conviction on charges stemming from hush money paid to a porn star. Trump's lawyers said in a court filing that they plan to appeal Justice Juan Merchan's decisions denying Trump's bids to dismiss the case due to presidential immunity and the demands of the presidential transition period.
