This is tremendous news! See the letter below.
Everyone, this is perhaps in elliptical lawyer-speak for some of you.
So let me translate — Bragg agrees that Trump has filed a motion to dismiss the New York charges in light of yesterday’s immunity ruling. The Manhattan… https://t.co/O4aIWpDV9k
Also, Bragg admits that the legal effect of Trump’s ruling + their requested extension meaning that Trump should not be sentenced in New York until the motion is resolved.
This means that if Bragg gets his extension (which he will), the earliest Judge Merchan could deny a motion to dismiss the case and reset sentencing would be July 25. And that would be only after studying the matter for a single day, which should be insufficient. And doesn’t even consider oral argument on the motion if that gets held.
The Republican Convention is from July 15-18, so Trump will not be sentenced before the Convention!
On balance of all factors, the earliest Trump gets sentenced is realistically now some day in August.
And in reality the whole case should get tossed before then.
