New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan said on Sept. 6 that he would delay sentencing in former President Donald Trump’s criminal trial until after the 2024 presidential election.

The new date is Nov. 26 instead of Sept. 18. It was initially scheduled for July but got pushed back following motions related to immunity and Merchan’s recusal.
