Prosecutors Agree to Delay Trump Hush Money Sentencing Until Post-Presidency

TL;DR Summary
New York prosecutors are willing to delay sentencing President-elect Donald Trump for his conviction on falsifying business records until after he completes his upcoming presidential term. They oppose overturning the conviction but suggest deferring proceedings until Trump leaves office in 2029. This follows a Supreme Court ruling granting presidents immunity from prosecution for official acts, though prosecutors argue Trump's case is unrelated to presidential duties. The Manhattan DA's office has requested a new deadline for motions, and the judge has yet to decide on the matter.
