Trump's Gag Order Defeats Continue in Court Battles
TL;DR Summary
A New York appeals court has upheld a gag order barring Donald Trump from commenting about court personnel in his civil fraud trial, ruling that his lawyers used the wrong legal mechanism to fight the restriction. The court stated that Trump's lawyers should have followed the normal appeals process instead of suing the trial judge who imposed the gag order. Closing arguments in the trial are scheduled for January 11, and a verdict is expected by the end of January.
