Prosecutors back delaying Donald Trump sentence until he leaves White House | BBC News


New York prosecutors have vowed to oppose President-elect Donald Trump’s effort to overturn his criminal conviction, but they expressed a willingness to wait to sentence him until he completes his upcoming presidential term.

Prosecutors urged the judge who is considering Trump’s sentence after his guilty verdict to consider options other than dismissal, including holding off until the president-elect is scheduled to leave the White House in 2029.

The Manhattan district attorney’s office asked Justice Juan Merchan to set a new deadline of 9 December for both sides to consider the case and file new motions.

Trump’s sentencing is scheduled for 26 November, but it could be delayed further.
