"Judge Denies Trump's Appeal, Hush Money Trial Looms"
TL;DR
Former President Donald Trump's attempt to delay his hush-money trial in Manhattan was swiftly rejected by a New York appeals court judge in a single sentence, denying his application for a stay of trial pending a change of venue. The trial, related to alleged hush-money payments to Stormy Daniels, is set to begin on April 15, and Trump's legal team is preparing to sue the judge overseeing the case in an attempt to overturn a gag order and recuse him, while also facing another case in Florida.
