The Trump team’s effort to delay the ruling in the right to remain silent case
The Associated Press reported, quoting a source, that Donald Trump’s legal team, the former president of the United States, sent a letter to Judge Juan Merchan, who presided over Trump’s trial in New York, requesting his sentencing, which is scheduled for later this month. It was planned to delay.
This move comes hours after the US Supreme Court (SCOTUS) issued its ruling on Trump’s immunity, which the former president called a “huge victory”.
In this letter, this ruling is mentioned and Mirchan is asked to, while the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States and that it may be based on the case of the New York court (the case of payment of “rights of silence” to an actor of adult films (films with violent sequences) sexual, gruesome or obscene) and 34 other charges that he was found guilty of), delaying Trump’s sentencing.
The Supreme Court of the United States announced in a ruling yesterday, Monday local time, that the former president of this country is immune from prosecution for some actions taken during his office. The Supreme Court of the United States declared with 6 votes against 3 votes that while former presidents can take actions within the framework of their legal authority and have immunity, they do not have immunity for private actions.
After the US Supreme Court ruling, Trump considered it a great victory for democracy. This ruling postpones the decision to prosecute Trump for conspiracy to change the outcome of the 2020 election.
Trump is accused of making false claims about fraud in the 2020 American election, deceiving the United States of America, violating civil rights, and pressuring officials to change the election results.
