JUDGE SIGNALS NO JAIL FOR TRUMP IN HUSH MONEY CASE SENTENCE

President-elect Donald Trump will be sentenced on Jan 10 in the criminal case in which he was convicted on charges involving hush money paid to a porn star, but is unlikely to face jail time or other penalties, a judge said on Friday.

Justice Juan Merchan's ruling means Trump will be required to appear at a court hearing just 10 days before his Jan. 20 inauguration - an unprecedented scenario in U.S. history. Before Trump, no U.S. president - former or sitting had been charged with or convicted of a crime.

The judge said Trump, 78, may appear at his sentencing either in person or virtually.
