TL;DR Summary

A New York judge has issued a limited gag order on former President Donald Trump during his civil business fraud trial after he made disparaging remarks about a court clerk. The order applies to all parties in the case and specifically prohibits verbal attacks on court staff. Trump had recirculated a social media post criticizing the judge's principal law clerk, which he later deleted. The judge emphasized that personal attacks on court staff are unacceptable and not tolerated. The trial, brought by New York's Democratic attorney general, Letitia James, alleges that Trump and his company lied about his wealth on financial statements.
