New York: Donald Trump's team said he won a major legal victory on Friday after a judge in the US president-elect's criminal hush money case ordered that sentencing be delayed indefinitely as the Republican prepares his White House return
"The joint application for a stay of sentencing is granted to the extent that the November 26, 2024 date is adjourned," Judge Juan Merchan said in an order in New York.
Trump's legal team cited a landmark July ruling from the Supreme Court that gives presidents sweeping immunity for official acts committed while in office as justification for their request.
"In a decisive win for President Trump, the hoax Manhattan Case is now fully stayed and sentencing is adjourned," Trump's communications director Steven Cheung said in a statement.
"President Trump won a landslide victory as the American People have issued a mandate to return him to office and dispose of all remnants of the Witch Hunt cases."
