The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday declined to delay the sentencing of Donald Trump, who faces felony charges in New York related to payments made to silence a porn star.
The decision aligns with a lawsuit from the state of Missouri, which contended that proceeding with the sentencing infringes upon voters’ constitutional rights to fully engage with Trump as he attempts to reclaim the presidency.
The court’s decision ensures that Trump’s legal proceedings will continue as scheduled, without postponement until after the November 5th election.
