America.. The Supreme Court rejects Trump’s request to postpone the ruling on “hush money”

The US Supreme Court on Thursday rejected President-elect Donald Trump’s request to postpone the expected sentencing against him in the cash-for-silence case in New York.
On Thursday, the highest court of appeals in New York refused to suspend the expected ruling against US President-elect Donald Trump in the money-for-silence case.
A New York Court of Appeals judge issued a brief order refusing to grant a hearing to Trump’s legal team.

The issue of hush money

Trump resorted to the Supreme Court on Wednesday after the courts in New York refused to postpone the ruling by Judge Juan Merchan in Manhattan.
Merchan presided over Trump’s trial and conviction last May on 34 criminal counts of falsifying business records in what prosecutors described as an attempt to cover up the payment of $130,000 in hush money to an actress. Trump denies any wrongdoing.
