Prosecutors emphasized that a jury had already convicted Mr. Trump of falsifying records to cover up a sex scandal, highlighting the legal weight of the case.
Acknowledging the unprecedented nature of the case, prosecutors suggested a four-year freeze, recognizing the complexities raised by Trump's presidential status.
Mr. Trump's lawyers contended that dismissing the case was necessary to avoid unconstitutional impediments to his ability to govern as president.
The district attorney's proposal to freeze the case indicates a desire to balance the legal proceedings with the demands placed on the office of the presidency.
