President-elect Donald Trump will be sentenced Friday in his New York hush money case after the Supreme Court refused to postpone the sentencing. The decision was made in a 5-4 ruling Thursday evening.
Trump is poised to return to the White House as the 47th President of the United States on January, 21, 2025 after he was elected in the November election.
However, prior to his election, Trump was dealing with a slew of criminal and civil cases against him; in May 2024 a jury found the former president guilty on all counts of the 34 counts in his hush money.
The sentencing date was originally delayed to come after the November 5 election date and Trump has taken his case all the way to the Supreme Court to ask for it to postponed further.
