Trump asks for another delay of sentencing for New York "hush money" criminal conviction
CBSN
Lawyers for Donald Trump on Monday demanded a New York judge delay the president-elect's sentencing in his "hush money" criminal case, which is scheduled to take place at the end of the week.
Trump intends to appeal a Jan. 3 ruling by Justice Juan Merchan rejecting a motion to dismiss and upholding Trump's conviction on 34 felony charges of falsifying business records. Merchan ordered Trump to appear in person or virtually for sentencing on Friday.
Trump's lawyers say their appeal means proceedings in the case must automatically be paused, and if the delay isn't automatic, Merchan should grant one anyway.
