A New York Court of Appeals judge on Tuesday rejected President-elect Donald Trump’s bid to reverse the president’s ruling on the conviction of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
The president-elect’s legal team sought in Monday’s filing to cancel his sentencing, which was scheduled for Friday, after Judge Juan Melchan rejected his attempt to dismiss the case. Associate Judge Ellen Gesmer wrote on page 1: decision President Trump’s request to suspend the sentence was “denied,” he said.
“After considering the submitted documents and extensive oral argument, Movant’s application for interim stay is denied,” Gesmer wrote.
