Appeals Court Blocks Testimony of Ex-Manhattan Prosecutor in Trump Probe.

A federal appeals court has temporarily delayed the congressional deposition of Mark Pomerantz, a former senior prosecutor in the Manhattan district attorney’s criminal investigation of former President Trump. House Republicans are seeking to question Pomerantz as part of their probe into the Manhattan district attorney’s prosecution of Trump. The pause will last until a three-judge panel on the 2nd Circuit can hear a motion from Pomerantz and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) to pause the lower court ruling while their appeal proceeds.
