President-elect Donald Trump received an unconditional discharge for his criminal conviction, meaning he will get a criminal record but no other penalties.

This was the only one of Trump's criminal charges to reach and complete a trial, making him the first former or future U.S. president to be convicted of criminal charges.

In a decision Friday, New York Judge Juan Merchan noted that his inclination was to not impose a sentence of incarceration.

New York's highest court on Thursday dismissed an appeal from former President Donald Trump to lift the remaining gag order in his hush money case.

A New York judge agreed to delay the sentencing of former President Donald Trump in a criminal hush money case.

The former president received a second fine for violating a gag order prohibiting him from speaking about witnesses, jurors, court staff and their families. Trump is trying to appeal the gag order.

Jurors will be asked to identify the the news and social media programs they use, podcasts they listen to and if they have supported or been a member of white supremacist and extremist groups.

Trump's lawyers urged Manhattan Judge Juan M. Merchan to step aside from the case, alleging bias and a conflict of interest because his daughter is a Democratic political consultant.
