Disgraced ex-politician ​John Sampson may have been convicted by a federal jury, but ​he ​doesn’t think that should stop him from missing his daughter’s college graduation.

Lawyers for the former state Senator ​from Brooklyn ​filed a letter Monday asking a judge to push back his surrender date to May 18 so he can attend the ceremony​.

Sampson, 51, is scheduled to surrender April 21. The New York City ​graduation ceremony is slotted for May 16 and 17, according to the letter​, which also notes that prosecutors object to the request.​​

An appeals court last week ruled Sampson will not be permitted to remain out on bail pending appeal.

The Democrat​ was found guilty in July 2015 of conspiracy to obstruct justice and lying to federal agents for skimming money off foreclosure deals he’d been entrusted to monitor, and then accepting a questionable loan to cover up the missing cash.

He was sentenced to five years in prison this past January.
