"Trump's Legal Maneuvers to Delay Hush Money Trial Face Setbacks"

Originally Published 1 year ago — by The Washington Post

Donald Trump's legal team is appealing a gag order and a venue ruling in the hush money criminal case, seeking to reverse the judge's decisions and move the trial from Manhattan. The appeals include a survey showing public bias against Trump in the area. The trial is set to begin on April 15, and arguments on the gag order issue are expected to be heard by an emergency appeals judge on Tuesday. Trump faces 34 counts of falsifying business records related to a $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels, and has been openly critical of the judge and his daughter.

"Trump's Last-Minute Legal Maneuvers: Changing Trial Venue and Desperate Tactics"

Originally Published 1 year ago — by CNBC

Donald Trump's legal team has filed an appeal to change the venue of his upcoming hush money trial and pause a gag order, just a week before jury selection is set to begin in the Manhattan Supreme Court trial. The appeal aims to move the trial and stay the gag order, which prohibits Trump from speaking about likely witnesses or the judge's family. The Manhattan District Attorney has urged the judge to reject Trump's request for recusal, calling it a bad-faith effort to delay the trial and sidestep the gag order. This comes after the judge expanded the gag order to prohibit Trump from making statements about the judge's and the prosecutor's family members.
