President-elect Donald Trump lost a bid on Thursday to delay his sentencing in his criminal case by the highest court in New York, while a similar appeal is still pending at the Supreme Court.

The Empire State’s top court rejected Trump’s effort to delay the sentencing Thursday morning, roughly an hour after Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office countered Trump’s request, arguing his claim of “president-elect immunity” was baseless. The request to delay the case was denied by New York Court of Appeals Judge Jenny Rivera, according to a brief letter sent to Trump’s legal counsel.
