'The Five' co-host Judge Jeanine Pirro weighs in on President-elect Trump's legal battle in New York after DA Alvin Bragg said he was open to delaying sentencing.

New York Judge Juan Merchan abruptly canceled the scheduled November 26 sentencing of President-elect Donald Trump arising from his convictions in May on falsifying business records.

The judge’s order on Tuesday came as Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg notified the court that his office does not oppose further delays that could defer any sentencing "until after the end of the defendant’s upcoming presidential term" in 2029. At the same time, the DA opposes any attempt to dismiss the case.

Merchan seems flummoxed. He resembles Charlie Brown —wishy-washy. His dithering and vacillation are exceeded only by his disregard for the law.

BRAGG CASE 'EFFECTIVELY OVER' IN 'MAJOR VICTORY,' TRUMP OFFICIALS SAY

He has had more than four months to consider the pending defense motion to dismiss the case based on the Supreme Court’s decision on July 1 that Trump had broad and presumptive immunity from prosecution for official acts as president.

At trial, Bragg wrongly relied on testimony and documents that surely constituted "official acts." It was critical to the prosecution’s case and tainted the jury. It should never have been countenanced by the judge who knew that the high court was considering that very issue.

On that basis alone, the conviction should be overturned. But the defense also argues that Trump’s reelection merits dismissal because both a president and a president-elect are constitutionally immune from any criminal process, either state or federal.

What Merchan will do........
