Judge Juan Merchan has rejected former President Donald Trump’s third bid to kick him off the criminal hush money payments case, dismissing the former president’s arguments as “stale and unsubstantiated claims.”
“Stated plainly, Defendant’s arguments are nothing more than a repetition of stale and unsubstantiated claims,” Merchan wrote in an August 13 ruling.
This means Trump’s sentencing hearing will go on as planned on September 18. He became the first convicted former president in May after a Manhattan jury found him guilty on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records.
This is a developing story and will be updated as more information becomes available.
