Trump’s sentencing will no longer take place as scheduled on Nov. 26, according to Merchan’s order.

In a filing Tuesday, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg suggested delaying the remaining proceedings until after Trump’s term ends in 2029.

“The People deeply respect the Office of the President, are mindful of the demands and obligations of the presidency and acknowledge that Defendant’s inauguration will raise unprecedented legal questions,” prosecutors wrote. “We also deeply respect the fundamental role of the jury in our constitutional system.”

Trump’s defense attorneys argued that the case must be immediately dismissed “in order to facilitate the orderly transition of executive power following President Trump’s overwhelming victory in the 2024 Presidential election.”

Merchan set a Dec. 2 deadline for the defense to file its motion to dismiss the case and instructed prosecutors to file their response by Dec. 9.
