Donald Trump to be sentenced over hush money case in New York | BBC News


A judge has ordered that Donald Trump will be sentenced on 10 January in his hush-money case in New York.

The sentencing date is less than two weeks before the US president-elect is set to be sworn in as president.

New York Justice Juan Merchan signalled he would not sentence Trump to jail time, probation or a fine, but instead give him an "unconditional discharge".

Trump had attempted to use his presidential election victory to have the case against him dismissed.

The president-elect has posted on social media dismissing the judge’s order as an "illegitimate political attack".
