"Donald Trump's Gag Orders Upheld: What's Next for the Former President?"

A federal appeals court has upheld the gag order imposed on former President Donald Trump in his federal criminal case and a New York state appellate court has also upheld a gag order in his civil fraud trial.

"Trump's Gag Order Upheld as He Takes the Stand Amidst Legal Battles"

A federal appeals court has upheld a gag order on former President Donald Trump in his federal criminal case and a gag order in his civil fraud trial in New York City. Trump is accused of using his online platform and public appearances to incite anger towards judges, courtroom staff, legal adversaries, and witnesses. Despite previous violations of the gag order, Trump will take the stand on Monday in the New York case, where he is expected to criticize the judge and the New York Attorney General. The gag orders restrict Trump from criticizing courtroom staff and employees involved in the cases, but allow him to express his belief of being politically persecuted. The two cases are unrelated but the gag orders are connected, with federal prosecutors citing Trump's behavior as evidence for the need of a gag order.
