"Trump's Bid for Mistrial in NY Civil Fraud Suit Rejected by Judge"

Judge Arthur Engoron has rejected former President Donald Trump's request for a mistrial in the civil fraud suit against him, stating that the motion is "utterly without merit." Trump's team had claimed bias on the part of the judge and his law clerk, citing rulings, commentary, and political activities. The judge denied the request for a briefing on the issue, standing by his rulings and defending his law clerk's actions. The decision comes after a temporary lifting of a gag order on Trump and his attorneys.

The former White House senior adviser distances herself from her father's election fraud claims and denies working for the Trump Organization since early 2017. Protesters call for her criminal prosecution, while the New York Attorney General's Office argues that she is linked to fraud at the Trump Organization and personally benefited from it. The state seeks to prove that false financial statements were issued and insurance fraud was committed.

Trump's Fraud Trial: Appeals Court Asked to Stay Civil Trial Pending Appeal

Former President Donald Trump is requesting a New York appeals court to halt the civil fraud trial and put the underlying ruling on hold, following Judge Arthur Engoron's summary judgment order that found Trump liable for fraud. Trump's lawyers argue that the ruling will cause severe harm to innocent nonparties and employees. The New York Attorney General's office opposes the request, stating that it aims to disrupt an ongoing trial. The attorney general's office also criticizes Trump's team for filing the stay request after Trump stopped attending the trial. Trump's attorneys have agreed to drop a lawsuit they filed against Engoron and the New York attorney general.
