"Trump's Call for Mistrial in N.Y. Fraud Case Cites Alleged Bias by Judge and Clerk"

TL;DR Summary
Attorneys for former President Donald Trump have requested a mistrial in the ongoing civil fraud trial against him and his company, alleging bias from the court, including the judge and his law clerk. The mistrial motion points to the judge's rulings against the defendants and claims that the law clerk is politically biased and has exerted improper influence on the judge. The judge is likely to reject the mistrial motion, as he has defended his law clerk and his own rulings. The trial, which began in October, is scheduled to run through mid-December and carries high stakes for Trump and his family.
