The New York judge who is overseeing former President Donald Trump’s criminal case on Monday wrote that a Sept. 18 sentencing hearing for the former president will remain intact but made several scheduling decisions.
In a letter to Trump’s legal team and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office, Judge Juan Merchan wrote that he will rule on the former president’s motion for the judge to recuse himself in the case on Monday, Aug. 11. So far, previous motions have been struck down by the judge and a state appeals court.
