AI Summary:
A New York Court of Appeals judge issued a brief order on Thursday declining to grant a hearing to Trump’s legal team. That leaves the US Supreme Court as likely the president-elect’s last option to prevent a sentencing hearing from taking place as scheduled on Friday. Trump was found guilty in late May on 34 counts of falsifying business documents related to hush-money payments made to an adult film performer. In May, he became the first US president ever convicted of a crime. He has continued to reject any wrongdoing and says he is victim of political “witch hunt” Earlier this week, Trump’s lawyers asked the Supreme Court for an immediate stay of the sentencing.
