"Appeals Court Denies Trump's Request to Delay Hush Money Trial"
TL;DR Summary
An appeals court judge denied former President Donald Trump's request to delay the start of his New York hush money trial in order to challenge the gag order imposed by Judge Juan Merchan. The trial is set to begin in six days, and Trump's lawyers have been unsuccessful in their attempts to postpone it. The gag order prohibits Trump from publicly commenting on witnesses and the court staff, and his attorneys argue that it infringes on his First Amendment rights. The appeals court panel will still consider Trump's petition, but it will not delay the trial.
