TL;DR Summary

A judge has denied former President Trump's request for a one-month delay in the civil trial over E. Jean Carroll's allegation that he raped her in a New York department store in the 1990s. The trial will begin as scheduled on April 25. Trump's lawyers argued that the delay was needed after he was indicted by a New York grand jury on felony charges of falsifying business records, but the judge rejected the argument, saying the criminal charges are "entirely unrelated" to the civil case and that Trump provoked much of the media coverage himself.
