Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office has stated it will not oppose former President Donald Trump's request to delay his sentencing in his hush money case until after the November presidential election, deferring the decision to Judge Juan Merchan. Trump's legal team argues that the delay is necessary to appeal a ruling on presidential immunity expected on September 16, just two days before the current sentencing date. The prosecution's deference comes despite their disagreement with several of Trump's arguments, including claims of judicial bias. The Supreme Court's recent ruling on presidential immunity has complicated the case, as it may impact the admissibility of certain evidence used against Trump. Prosecutors emphasized that they are prepared for sentencing on any future date set by the judge. The ultimate decision on whether to delay the sentencing now rests with Judge Merchan.
