Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg opposed dismissing Trump\u2019s \u2018hush money\u2019 case.<\/p>\n
Earlier this year Trump was convicted on all 34 felony counts after he was accused of paying porn star Stormy Daniels, AKA, Stephanie Clifford, \u2018hush payments\u2019 through his then-attorney Michael Cohen in a scheme to silence her and stop the story about their alleged affair from being published in the National Enquirer.<\/p>\n
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg alleged Trump committed fraud because the payment was labeled \u201clegal fees.\u201d<\/p>\n
Crooked Judge Juan Merchan again on Tuesday suspended<\/a> any decision on the Trump lawfare case in Manhattan.<\/p>\n Merchan adjourned the case on Tuesday. He will make decision where this lawfare case heads next.<\/p>\n Bragg\u2019s prosecutors told Judge Merchan Trump\u2019s sentencing should be postponed, but that they would fight his efforts to dismiss the case.<\/p>\n \u201cGiven the need to balance competing constitutional interests, consideration must be given to various non-dismissal options that may address any concerns raised by the pendency of a post-trial criminal proceeding during the presidency, such as deferral of all remaining criminal proceedings until after the end of Defendant\u2019s upcoming presidential term,\u201d the prosecutors said in a filing, according to NBC News.<\/p>\n NBC News reported<\/a>:<\/p>\n New York prosecutors told the judge who presided over Donald Trump\u2019s hush money trial on Tuesday that his sentencing should be postponed while the president-elect\u2019s lawyers file further legal arguments asking the case be dismissed.<\/p>\n The proposal from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg\u2019s office would need to be signed off on by Judge Juan Merchan to become official. Merchan has agreed to previous requests from prosecutors seeking delays.<\/p>\n Prosecutors said they would challenge Trump\u2019s efforts to dismiss the case, but agreed they\u2019re in uncharted territory when it comes to sentencing a president, and acknowledged that his sentencing might need to take place after his term in office.<\/p>\n \u201cThe People deeply respect the Office of the President, are mindful of the demands and obligations of the presidency, and acknowledge that Defendant\u2019s inauguration will raise unprecedented legal questions. We also deeply respect the fundamental role of the jury in our constitutional system,\u201d their filing said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Prosecutors with the Manhattan DA\u2019s office said they would oppose President-elect Trump\u2019s attempt to dismiss his criminal conviction in New York but told the judge they do not object to pausing the case. https:\/\/t.co\/CeUrVkzF07<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/rU1dlqCum3<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 ABC News (@ABC) November 19, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The post DEVELOPING: Manhattan DA Bragg Opposes Dismissing Trump Hush Money Case<\/a> appeared first on The Gateway Pundit<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg opposed dismissing Trump\u2019s \u2018hush money\u2019 case.
