"Trump's Gag Order Returns in NY Civil Fraud Trial"

TL;DR Summary
A New York appeals court has reinstated a gag order that prevents former President Donald Trump from making comments about court personnel in his civil fraud trial. The gag order was initially imposed after Trump posted derogatory comments about a law clerk involved in the trial. Trump's attorneys challenged the order, arguing that it infringed on his free speech rights. The trial, brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James, alleges that Trump exaggerated his wealth on financial statements. The judge has fined Trump for violating the gag order and expanded it to include lawyers. Trump is due to testify in December.
