"Judge Allows Testimony from Michael Cohen and Stormy Daniels in Trump Hush Money Case"

Former President Donald Trump's lawyers are challenging a restriction on filings in his New York hush money case, asking the court to unseal some filings and vacate an order requiring permission before filing motions. The judge had imposed the restriction and granted a 30-day adjournment for defense attorneys to review over 100,000 pages of records produced by federal prosecutors. Trump's lawyers argue that the restriction violates the defendant's rights and request public access to filings, while the trial has been delayed until at least mid-April.

Attorney Slams Donald Trump's 'Tired and Laughable' Legal Filing

Donald Trump's legal team has been criticized for submitting "tired and laughable" legal filings arguing against the need for a gag order ahead of his federal election trial. The trial focuses on Trump's alleged attempt to overturn the 2020 election results. The Department of Justice has requested the reinstatement of a gag order due to threats and harassment received by the judge and court staff overseeing the trial. Trump's lawyers argue that there is insufficient evidence to justify a gag order and that it violates his First Amendment rights. Former federal prosecutor Joyce Vance criticized Trump's lawyers, stating that his rhetoric has resulted in real-life threats and harassment.

Texas Judge Prohibits AI-Generated Legal Filings After ChatGPT Scandal.

A Texas federal judge has banned legal filings that are primarily drafted by AI platforms like ChatGPT and Google’s Bard in his court without a person first checking those documents for accuracy. The judge argued that AI platforms are prone to hallucinations and bias and can make up content like quotes or citations. Any filing from a party that does not submit the certification will be stricken.
