While the cases against Donald Trump in Georgia and Florida have either stalled or fallen apart completely, the former president is still actively fighting attempts to imprison him in New York and Washington D.C. after a Supreme Court decision cast further doubt on the legitimacy of the lawfare cases.
In New York, Trump is fighting to postpone a sentencing that is currently scheduled to take place 48 days before Election Day. On Monday, District Attorney Alvin Bragg tossed the ball into Judge Juan Merchan’s court, saying he would not take a position on Trump’s request for a delay.

Manhattan, New York: Prosecution by DA Alvin Bragg for NDA Payment
How we got here: Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg — who “campaigned as the best candidate to go after the former president” — charged former President Donald Trump with 34 felony charges for alleged falsification of business records relating to a nondisclosure agreement paid by Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohen to pornographic film actress Stormy Daniels.
This criminal trial concluded on May 30, with the jury returning a guilty verdict that Trump is expected to appeal. The conviction does not affect President Trump’s ability to run for president, though it may present complications with his ability to run a modern presidential campaign.
Latest developments: The U.S. Supreme Court rejected an attempt by Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey to delay President Trump’s sentencing until after the November election.
