President-elect Donald Trump turned to the Supreme Court in a last-ditch effort to stop the sentencing, citing the conservative majority’s explosive immunity opinion.

The court turned down Trump's last-minute bid to prevent his sentencing, scheduled for Friday in New York state court in Manhattan 10 days before his inauguration for his second term as president.

The Supreme Court rejected Donald Trump’s request to block criminal proceedings in his hush money case in New York, meaning Friday's sentencing can take place.
