"Trump's Legal Team Makes Last-Ditch Effort to Delay Hush-Money Trial"

TL;DR Summary
Donald Trump's lawyers are seeking a delay and a change of venue for his hush money criminal trial in Manhattan, arguing that he faces potential prejudice in the heavily Democratic borough. They also seek to reverse a gag order that prohibits Trump from making comments about the judge's family. The trial, scheduled to start on April 15, is the first of Trump's four criminal indictments to go to trial and would be the first criminal trial of a former president. Trump has made numerous attempts to delay the trial, including filing lawsuits against the judge and challenging his rulings.
