The court will deliver its verdict on Donald Trump’s case involving payments to a porn actress just 10 days before his inauguration.
The elected President of the United States will receive a verdict on January 10 regarding the case of falsifying business documents related to payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels prior to the 2016 election, according to a statement from New York State Judge Juan Merchan, as reported by Orda.kz.

On May 31, a jury in New York found Trump guilty on all 34 counts in the case regarding the falsification of financial documents. The prosecution claims that Trump's attorney, Michael Cohen, provided actress Stormy Daniels with $130,000 just before Trump's victory in the 2016 presidential election, allegedly for her silence. The woman asserts that she had an affair with Trump in 2006. The politician denies the actress's allegations.
The sentencing in the case has been postponed twice — first from July 2024 to late November, and then indefinitely.
“This unlawful political attack is nothing more than a fabricated farce,” Trump wrote on Truth Social, noting that the judge's decision “contradicts the Constitution” and could “put an end to the presidency in the U.S. as we know it.”
The inauguration is set for January 20, 2025.
