The rare and lenient sentence, which will spare President-elect Donald J. Trump jail time, was used to address his unusual status.

On Friday, issuing Juan Merchan, condemned Donald J. Trump to an unconditional release, a rare and slight sentence in the courts of the New York State that still consolidate Mr. Trump’s prestige as a Torco before its inauguration.
A probation would have required that it meet certain conditions, such as the continuity of employment or the payment of a restitution, but Trump will be subject to the demands in the future.
The expected final results: last week, in an 18 -page decision, Judge Merchan said that he planned to give MR. Trump an absolute release, writing that “it seems to be the maximum viable solution to make a certain purpose. “
Mr. Trump, who was blamed for 34 positions of falsification crimes of advertising archives to cover a sexual scandal, had had to face probation or up to 4 years in prison, and a New York Times investigation revealed that the Merchan Pass’s trial had many lands for imprisonment.
Since 2014, a third of the defendants condemned by the top -of -degree commercial falsification rates in Manhattan have won criminal sentences, so it amounts to less than a year.
Other defendants have won a sentence, more than a year of imprisonment, or have been sentenced to probation, conditional discharges, network service or fines.
No accused in proven cases has won unconditional license.
