Donald Trump may seek dismissal of the criminal case in which he was convicted in May of 34 felony counts involving hush money paid to a porn star, a judge ruled on Friday, while also indefinitely delaying Trump's sentencing in light of his victory in the Nov.

Prosecutors say they would agree to pause Donald Trump's sentencing in his New York hush money trial as his attorney pursues a dismissal of the case.

The president-elect was convicted in May of falsifying business records to cover up a hush money payment to an adult-film star ahead of the 2016 election.
