The Supreme Court on Monday declined a long-shot push from Missouri to remove a gag order in former President Donald Trump’s hush-money case and halt his sentencing in New York till presidential election.
The Missouri lawyer general went to the high court with the unusual request to sue New York after the justices granted Trump broad immunity from prosecution in a separate case filed in Washington.
The Supreme Court's decision came in response to Missouri's lawsuit alleging that the case against Trump violated voters' right under the US Constitution to hear from the Republican presidential candidate as he vies for the White House again.
