Much has been made in the press about the Trump sentencing date, which has
been set by the judge for July 11, just four days before the Republican convention. But it's obvious Trump is going to appeal, so wouldn't the sentencing date normally be delayed at that point pending the result of the appeal?

Are appeals automatically granted ?

Appeals do not delay sentencing (at least in NYS). In fact the appeal
cannot be filed until until he is sentenced and, acc to one old guest**
lawyer, he's not even considered convicted until he's sentenced. But I
think I heard with one ear some remark by a news person that some motion
could delay it.

**I might know who he was except... Normally I only listen to the news,
but yesterday, MSNBC (which I consider to be anti-Israel) allowed me to
watch all day for free (instead of only 10 minutes a day for those who
don't have cable TV). But despite watching, they only say who is
talking I suppose when they first introduce a guest, but after he says something interesting when you want to know who it is, they never say
again. They don't say good-bye by name when he's leaving either, even
though I wrote to them a year ago and pointed out how many ways there
are, and they know there are***, to listen only to their station, and
how even many people who are watching don't remember the intro at the
start before a guest has said something important. .... And even the
hosts were not identified.

Instead they have 2 and a half layers of chyron, that say the same thing
all day, something like "Donald trump convicted" on one line, and "MSNBC special report" on another, things everyone knows or would know after 3
minutes of watching. I wrote them about that in the same email. It is
just so stupid. It's the stupidity that bothers me more than not
knowing who is talking. The other networks are no better, afaicr.

***Tune-in, webpages, webradio (There are dedicated internet radios.
Mine cost $250, but it's a disappointment, largely because the
advertising is so much louder than the programming, and when I'm lying
in bed it wakes me up instead of putting me to sleep. And even in the
day time, the advertising is so loud I have to turn it down, then turn
it back up again for the program. Very disappointing)

Apparently an appeal can't be filed until after sentencing.

Are appeals automatically granted ?

If one is requested, an "appeal" is required to be heard. In some cases an appeal is not guaranteed, and the person objecting to a court order has to
ask for a writ instead of an appeal. In that case whether or not to hear
the claim is discretionary with the court. In this case it would, in fact,
be an appeal. But then if he eventually wants to go to the US Supreme
Court, that will not technically be an appeal, so may or may not be heard
by the Court.

Heard a rerun of what I heard before: A 330 motion to set aside the
verdict could delay the sentencing, some woman lawyer on tv** said. When
that is denied, he'll be sentenced. If I heard correctly (should have
been listening instead of typing) it can take months to deny it.

The presentencing report (PSR), which can include interview information
from family and friends, and other court results, and an interview, and
it seems just about eveything, will go to the court and both parties but
will not be public. (Darn, I wanted to hear what others said about
him.)

**It's TV but I only listen.
