The man convicted of an attempted car bomb attack in New York's Times Square is due to be sentenced at a court in Manhattan.
Faisal Shahzad faces a mandatory life sentence after pleading guilty in June to 10 weapons and terrorism charges.
Prosecutors say the Pakistani-born US citizen has not shown any remorse for his actions.
Explosives packed into the vehicle on 1 May failed to detonate and Shahzad was arrested two days later.
