Supreme Court Denies Trump’s Request to Halt Sentencing in Hush Money Case

HeadlineJan 10, 2025

President-elect Trump is being sentenced by a New York court today over his 34-count hush money and 2016 election subversion conviction, making him the first felon who will serve as U.S. president. This comes after the Supreme Court denied Trump’s request to halt the sentencing.

Meanwhile, a federal appeals court ruled Thursday that the Justice Department can release part of its report on Trump’s efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss. Trump could still ask the Supreme Court to block the report’s release.
