President-elect Donald Trump's Efforts to Overturn Conviction
Following his conviction, Trump's legal team has pursued various strategies to overturn the verdict. They have cited a U.S. Supreme Court decision supporting presidential immunity for official acts, arguing that some evidence presented during the trial pertained to Trump's official duties. However, the judge ruled that Trump's conduct was personal and that the disputed evidence did not influence the guilty verdict.

The sentencing has experienced multiple delays. Initially scheduled for July 2024, it was postponed to September, then to November 26, and now remains unscheduled. These delays have been attributed to legal motions and the need to consider the implications of Trump's election as president.
While the judge has indicated that Trump will be spared jail time, the formal sentencing carries significant symbolic weight. Trump's efforts to halt the proceedings reflect a desire to avoid the negative connotations associated with a criminal sentencing, especially as he prepares to assume the presidency.
