New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan rejected President-elect Donald Trump’s bid to dismiss the case.
By Sam Dorman, The Epoch Times, January 3, 2025:
ADVERTISEMENTNew York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan has rejected an attempt by President-Elect Donald Trump to dismiss his business records case and ordered sentencing for Jan. 10.
In his Jan. 3 order, Merchan rejected the idea that the Presidential Transition Act, the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution, or presidential immunity—each of which had been cited by Trump’s legal team—required vacating the jury’s verdicts or dismissal of the indictment.
Merchan said in his order that he wasn’t inclined to impose a prison term on the president-elect. Citing concerns about presidential immunity, he also said that “a sentence of unconditional discharge appears to be the most viable solution to ensure finality and allow the Defendant to pursue his appellate options.”
In May, a jury found Trump guilty on 34 felony counts, raising the prospect that he could face prison. Experts previously told The Epoch Times that the supremacy clause of the U.S. Constitution would preclude Trump from serving time.
Trump Communications Director Steven Cheung responded to Merchan’s order by calling it “a direct violation of the Supreme Court’s Immunity decision and other longstanding jurisprudence.”
Cheung said that Trump’s transition should be “unobstructed by the remains of this or any remnants of the Witch Hunts.”
“There should be no sentencing and President Trump will continue fighting against these hoaxes until they are dead,” he said.
