<p>Former Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr., who was Alvin Bragg&#8217;s predecessor, said over the weekend that he does not believe that the court will sentence former President Donald Trump to jail after he was convicted on 34 felony counts last week.</p>
<p>Vance made the remarks during a Sunday interview on NBC News&#8217; &#8220;Meet The Press&#8221; while talking about what potential sentence could be imposed on Trump if his conviction is not overturned during appeals.</p>
<p>&#8220;These are the lowest-level, nonviolent felonies,&#8221; said guest host Peter Alexander. &#8220;They are punishable by a fine, probation, or up to four years in prison. Donald Trump turned 78 this month. He&#8217;s almost 80. He has no prior record. Here&#8217;s what he said this morning in an interview with Fox on the topic of possible jail time.&#8221;</p>
<p>Vance wouldn&#8217;t say whether or not he would recommend jail time because he didn&#8217;t think it was his place to comment.</p>
<p>&#8220;If you ask me do I think the court will impose jail in this case, as I said to you I think yesterday, I think not,&#8221; he said. &#8220;But ultimately, that&#8217;s Judge Merchan&#8217;s decision. The president has made this a little more complicated by having been found in contempt ten times during the court, but I think that with the proximity of the Republican convention four days after his sentencing and then if he is the candidate for the Republican Party the proximity of the election, I would be surprised that he would be sentenced to any imprisonment.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Now, that said, the court could adjourn sentencing until after the general election and then essentially decide then,&#8221; he continued.</p>
